Freehand, Circular, and Polyline Select Tool Shapes

Instead of only being able to select stamps in a rectangular area, being able to choose if you want your select tool shape to be: rectangular, circular, polyline or freehand would be extremely helpful. This is a common feature in image editors, for example.

Also many maps don't align in rectangles so trying to select areas of stamps gets difficult.

    Auto Select Stamp Area w/ Shape Tool

    I find I recolor stamps quite a lot. In Photoshop, there is a way to select a transparent image by clicking + Ctrl on the layer menu, and it will select the entire area of the transparent image.

    This would be extremely helpful to select the entire area of a stamp when using the shape tool so that you can apply a color or texture to that area.

    Even if I need to then go in and remove certain areas to give them another color, this would eliminate the bulk of my work and make it a little easier to apply textures and colors over existing stamps.

    Adding my voice to the choir on this. I understand that this is likely hard to implement but it would make a world of difference to be able to freehand select areas.
