1.  Make the "pan" functions work the SAME in both Concept and Allegro.
(This was wrong in 12.x and before, fine in 13.x, broken (again) in 14.x).
Ditto for the sense of mouse buttons when panning..."shift/hold" in Allegro,
just "hold" in Concept.  Grrr...

2.  In the artwork generation menu, there is a "select all" button, but no
"deselect all" button.  Add a "deselect all" button!

3.  How about using the mouse wheel (most of us have wheel mice) for zoom
in/out?

4.  Fix the plot bug in Allegro that causes Allegro to crash unpredictably
when changing printers or print/plot settings.  (Have to delete
pcbenv\allegro.ini to fix it, which loses all sorts of settings)  (Seems
much worse under 14.2 and XP than it was under Win/2k)

5.  Bring back the ability to manually build complex parts and define
different asymmetric functions in different "versions" of the part.  Used to
be able to do that by manually combining chips.dat files when you compiled
chip schematic/pinout drawings but under the new (and "improved") librarian,
you can't, at least not easily.
