I would for one prefer to have the capability of inverting the 
way the Ctrl key works. 

It is possible?

You can temporarily disable this feature by holding in the CTRL key. I
guess that should be added to the wiki somewhere

You may use multiple symbols to represent sections of a single  
physical part, so refdes "collisions" are perfectly acceptable. The  
old UNIX textutils come in handy here:

grep refdes= page1.sch page2.sch | sort | uniq -d

will show you all duplicated refdes attributes in a design containing  
two schematic files (you may, of course, list as many as necessary).  
You then get to decide if this list corresponds to your intention. I  
personally appreciate tools that don't try to outsmart me...

It doesn't fail silently -- it succeeds at doing something you don't expect it 
to do. ;-)

Glad you like the recent changes; they're mostly Peter Clifton's work.  I'm 
sure he's got an Amazon wishlist if you feel that way inclined.  ;-)
