  Replying to [ticket:2749 mwortmann]:

  mapset dialog be a lot more useful in the Layer Manager toolbar? I'm not
  sure how many people are actually using the dialog, but I'm sure most use
  the commandline to do this simple change. I

  I use the dialog quite often when I don't remember the mapset names.
+1 I use it a lot as well

  >always thought typing 'g.mapset xyz' (plus maybe g.mapset -l) or going to
  the dialog, seems too much for such a simple thing. The simple dropdown
  without the Ok button would be quick and easy. Plus it could show the
  current mapset which is somewhat missing in the Layer Manager.

  I mostly agree but I am not sure where to put it, there is already a lot
  of things in the toolbar, so we would have to start a new row of toolbars?
  Maybe the data catalog tab would be an option?
I think the number of buttons is fairly limited, one more wouldn't be a problem i.m.h.o. But a context menu when right clicking on a map set in the data catalog, with the option to change to that map set may even be better,

  BTW, on Ubuntu, you can type Alt and then 'Change ...' and launch the
  dialog in this way, too.
I totally forgot about that, thanks for the reminder :-)
