Make a selection of objects from Global Edit
When using Global Edit to edit multiple instances of a grouped object (or any other object), it would be very useful to have an option to keep those objects selected when you leave Global Edit (in order to group them all together for instance).

There is a way to workaround this:
1. Show All
2. Start Global Edit
3. Hide Selection
4. Show All
Works also with Lock instead of Hide.
Unfortunately, requires nothing useful hidden and locked for it to work.I thought about a simpler trick, with Global Edit, Delete, Undo, but it does not work for this... but it works as intended, really, dropping a Global Edit mode on undo would be a not healthy thing!
And this means there is a way for a script to do this job. Will see how it goes.

There should be also a way to convert these pseudo-symbols into real symbols: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/35768314

Please also add caption to this command. It's quite difficult to notice at Control panel.
Also, just give us a way to add captions to any command there.
