Some thoughts on features to improve usage of the trans/rot/scale gizmos.

-It would be great to have a way to toggle between global and local trans/rot/scale handles.
-with the translate handle it would be nice to be able to move in two axis, much like 3DsMax. Or free move like in Blender.

-same with the scale. The ability to scale in 2 or all axis would be great.
-a free rotate option would be good too.

One last thought on the usability of the gizmos is the hot key to switch between them. I understand that using Tab to switch between them is simpler, but what ends up happening in reality is that the user is never really sure what they're going to get. If you make a mistake, you have to Tab click 3 or 4 more times just to make sure you get the right thing. Why not use the Maya method of Q for select, and W,E,R for trans/rot/scale? It's not really original but it's well known, and the user knows what they're going to get when you click it.
