Yes, that'd be what we're going for.  I'm not sure if I want to have
connecting and editing being the same activation -- there are definite
uses for being able to connect to objects that you cannot select.

A trickier question is what happens when you try to select Same Type or
Transitive where some of the objects are on non-active layers.
