Very much related to this, please see my suggestions for updates to
the GRASS query functions. Most should be relatively minor changes,
but would make querying much easier. And it would make it easier to
implement GUI wrappers for interactive querying.

vector querying "

OK, good perspective !

Concerning the GUI wrapping of commands such as v.what or v.select,
will it imply the ability to query directly within the display window ?

Yes. That's the idea. Martin Landa already has tried to implement this to some extent in the new wxPython GUI. But it involves a lot of workarounds for inadequacies in the GRASS vector querying. These updates to querying modules would make this easier and more robust.
