Finish consolidating tools

Throughout OBD, we have lots of tools that do similar things. For example, we have "Connect Elements", but also "Connect Beams/Pipes" and "Connect Roofs".

This semi-duplication makes it harder to find commands and slower to find them because they are often under drop-downs.

    You've got to be careful here. What do you call a tool that connects everything? Our current connect walls tool also connects beams but users don't know that since it is called connect walls.

    when considering this consolidation please also consider that if a user wants to edit or modify a single object there maybe instances where they want to edit multiple objects of the same type at the same time. Im not sure if we do this consistently enough across all object types.

    Hello Tom, thank you for the idea! Upgraded it to a feature and bundled with the Modification/Placement Ribbon review item. Let's review in the scheduled call. Looking forward.
