#22609 new enhancement

Description
I use box select constantly. I also use lasso select constantly, but it's rarely intentional. This is due to the 'select mode' (A) shortcut toggling between box select and lasso select. I would like to use separate keys for each selection mode. Lasso select already has it's own shortcut, but box select does not.

Changing the behavior of a shortcut based on the existence of another sounds strange. I can't think of any other application that does this. I think adding a new shortcut would be more in line with the "principle of least surprise".
We'd probably have to detect that the lasso select mode has a shortcut set, and then disable toggling for the selection mode.
