Mouse select in Edison

Hi,
Would it be possible to expand how the mouse interacts with the waveform view in Edison?
Particularly, it would be very nice to be able to select a sliced segment by left-clicking on the area (either double click, or a single left-click on the marker to select the whole segment) rather than right-click, select from menu as it is. Right now, most simple interaction functions are only accessible through menus, which can really slow you down after a while.
Or to simply left-click and drag the mouse over an area and have it highlight, like your standard Windows box highlight function (currently the left-click on the wave form area doesn't seem to do anything, perhaps I'm doing something wrong?). Currently, it is very tricky to perform simple wave editing, like selecting a section of audio to delete it, or cut and paste functions inside one waveform.
Similarly, a single left-click, hold and drag on slice markers to adjust marker position manually would be useful. Or some kind of easy way to insert a slice marker at a given position.
Thanks,
Steve

Really?
I must be doing something wrong then. I've just checked in Audiomulch, energyXT, Bidule and Live 6, I couldn't get it to work in any of them. Is there a setting somewhere that would block it from working? Maybe I turned something on that I shouldn't have?
Was it always that way? I think I'm using the latest version of the Juice Pack, I could try downloading again.

are you clicking on the marker itself? I mean the marker's label at the top?
It also works through ctrl+clicking the label btw

and what do you mean by 'the left click on the waveform doesn't seem to do anything'? Left-clicking does.. select

Damn, I figured out. 
Seems Freeze was turned on by default (I guess I must have clicked it on by accident at some point and its state is persistent across instances). Turned it off and all is working fine. Strange, I think I actually knew it was supposed to work the way I had asked, but it hasn't since I installed the latest version.
