    For years the selection tool has been the most frustrating tool to use in illustrator. The amount of time wasted having to zoom in to make a selection. No matter what setting is in preferences for selection it still isn't precise enough. It's great if you want to pickup points or set a pickup auto distance etc. But the sheer lack of accuracy of the pointer/object relationship is awful. When 2 small objects are next to each other and you make a selection, when the very end of the pointer is over the object you want and it goes and selects the other object. Even though the very tip was over the shape you wanted! This basic fault needs to be fixed... you've had 33 years to get this right! The interruption to working, to constantly have to zoom in is immeasurable.

    Can we have a toggle setting in preferences for the 'z' zoom tool key. Works like this. Hold the z key down to activate the zoom, drag or zoom with the mouse to the required size, let go of the zoom key and it goes automatically back to the tool you were using before zooming. Without having to press any other keys like cmd+space on mac. Saves time having to move to press 2 keys to do this and also removes a press on another key to get back to the tool you were previously using (based on the way it currently works).
