Keep Sub-Object Named Selection Sets on Collapse/Modifier

[lightcube]

Sub-Object Named Selection Sets in Editable Poly are lost in many cases. This should not happen. Instead, the named selection sets should survive new modifiers as well as using Collapse To in the modify tab.

In the case of adding modifiers: a named selection set should be available up the stack in the same way that sub-object selections get passed up the stack. This would mean that in the case of topology changes, the named selection set should adapt. For example, if a named selection "Polys1to10" set on Polygons 1..10 are set and a Tessellate modifier is added, the named Selection set "Polys1to10" would be all the resulting polys of that modification.

Agree this would be very useful and save unnecessary work.  In even moderately complicated meshes it can take significant time to get just the right selection of verts or edges or polys and then carefully checking to make sure nothing unintended is selected.  In fact, I came upon this idea suggestion when doing a google search to see if there is a clever work around (other than not collapsing the stack) to the problem for something I am working on now.

I included this idea in my general one for Selection Sets if you don't mind (pls. check it out!):
