Description
If you draw an overlay the active tool goes from the overlay tool you had selected to the selection tool. This might be because we assume user wants to modify the last placed overlay. But maybe the overlay tool should stay active in case you want to lay down a number of rects or points or whatever. It's a little confusing that the tool automatically switches and its a pain to have to reactivate tool over and over.

I believe this is no longer an issue. Dscho added some tool delegation code at some point. Dscho please review this ticket for any useful info.

Since we do not have the selection tool anymore (but the delegation tool determines whether you meant the selection tool or the creation tool), this is no longer an issue, yes.
Maybe each tool can decide whether to activate the selection tool or whether to keep the focus on itself for further input.
