I just realised, that for rotating multiple components every component have to be rotated individually. It would be great to circumvent this somehow. From other tools I know at least tow possible solutions:
(a) have the ability to build component groups (select multiple components >> right click >> new feature: create group) and then be able to do actions onto this groups. I'm not sure whether this grouping has other advantages.
(b) directly be able to: select multiple components >> right click >> rotate (or flip).

For tunnels it would be good to have the action "flip" also in the context senitive menu.
It would be also be advantageous to have some more features for tunnels:
(a) a way to change the labelling of tunnels with same names (e.g. from "SDA" to "Data" on both sides).
(b) be able to select one or more multiple lines >> right click >> generate tunnels. The labels of the tunnels might be generated from the names of the connected pins of the components.
(c) the loast one might als be good for creating busses

Another great feature would be have some more "principle" keyboard interactions:

"tabbing" through the components in the circuit (so: select the next compontent with pressing the tab key).
open properties of a selected component with pressing "return"
