I don't know if this is a worthwhile suggestion or not, but if there isn't already, it would be nice to have a dialog box that would enable one to select all of one particular kind of object.

Basically it would have the ability for the the user to instantly select all individual points, or all lines, all lines of a certain length, or greater/less than a certain length, or all smart polygons, or all construction lines that are horizontal/vertical/at a particular angle, etc.. This would be most useful when cleaning up geometry in the file or selecting all of one thing to move rather than individually clicking on each. You could also "invert-select" if you wanted everything except one certain object type..
