838	Name selection command/GUI	jadolfbr@…	Conrad Huang	"From chimerax-users: 

One thing that is missing is a similar list of selections (yes, ala PyMol).  I find these to be extremely useful in a  long running session and I was wondering if something like that is planned. 
It would be similar to the model window, where you could control each selection and maybe apply view controls to each selection as well - like having components that are cartoon and others stick, etc.

Some thoughts:

1) GUI could be a tab in the Model Panel

2) Should somehow interface with upcoming Actions menu

3) Elaine has mocked up the command version at:  http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/meng/chimerax/docs/user/commands/name.htm

4) Possibly inspect the contents of the named selection;  add notes to a selection
