I just keep my finger on the escape key - the most used key in finale
for me anyway. Personally I would find it problematic if it changed
back to the selection tool because how does the appl know if you've
finished doing what you're doing?

The one thing I don't like about the new selection tool is that if
you start out using the selection tool, use it to fully edit
something so that a different tool opens up, when you're finished
with that editing, the program doesn't go back to having the
selection tool active. So whatever tool you were most recently
working in (activated by the selection tool) remains active, and I
find it disconcerting because mentally I was working in the
selection tool and expect to still be working with the selection
tool once I finish some specific task I started with the selection
tool.
It's a petty gripe but it's something I find bothersome.
