Great way to expand the layout!

Adding a simple way to choose between left/right click selection would bereally useful imo, given the fact that selecting things with the right button seems a bit unnatural for new users. Maybe the text language selector should also be there, because finding it inside FIle> User preferences > System > International Fonts is too complicated for someone who doesn’t understand english, at least in my experience.

Being a Blender user for over a decade, it’s great to see it constantly improving, congratulations!.
