A problem with blender is that there are no tools for selecting data 
based on how it matches the current selection.

For eg- Selecting coplanar faces to the current selected is relay useful 
when selecting all wall faces of a building.

Or selecting all faces of the same area is useful in many cases too

Heres a quick mock up of what could be added- would select matches to 
the currently selected data.

I have coded about half of these in Python already (See UV Menu, Select 
Same..), but its not ideal since access is in nested menu's and with 
really large meshes, python runs a bit too slow.
