I would like to use a tool and have it active for all opened documents. It is super annoying that tools are active on a per document basis. E.g. I want to inpaint 30+ images, deadline fast approaching...In one doc the brush is selected, so I draw stuff over my image. In the next document the selection brush is selected with a huge brush size, I don't notice it, I assume it crashed, because nothing is happening. In another document the move tool is active, I move layers around without noticing, because I'm zoomed in, messing up everything I painstakingly put in place.
I usually work in batches, do one task for multiple images, so I have to switch through all open documents first and select the tool I need for the current task, before I can start. This for every thing I do, it is infuriating to do and leads to mistakes in lots of situations.
So please, please, please implement a way that I can select a tool and it stays selected for all open documents.
