    Object Cycling in Selection (overlapping objects)

    Changed in 2009 to SHIFT+SPACE from CTRL+Click. I'm trying to get used to
    the change, but it seems pretty cumbersome when used inside a command:
    1. You still have to click to select after highlighting desired object.
    2. If mouse is moved even slightly, hightlighting goes back to "default"
    object.
    3. I kept thinking it wasn't working, but realized I wasn't letting go of
    SHIFT before clicking to selecting (thus "removing" with shift).

    It's a little easier if you are selecting before issuing command.

    I've noticed that CTRL+Click doesn't do anything now (other than display
    little help dialog on using SHIFT+SPACE), anyone know the reason for the
    change? Any way of restoring CTRL+Click?

    It is still available, but won't that set it back to before shift was used as well?
