Rollback Bar User Experiance

It might be just me but I alway find that I position myself wrong when using the rollback bar. I select the feature I want to have last in the list after rolling back, then when it is taken out by the rollback I have to pull the bar down to include this feature. I find I am always thinking in terms of how I want the rebuild to finish not what I don't want to include.
I'd also like the bar to be a bit fatter as I find sometimes I grab the feature rather than the bar. Very annoying when a feature is moved by mistake instead of the bar. I think the bar's selection area should be the same size as the feature's in the tree.
Just some small issue's I find and would be interested if others have the same experiences.

Please submit a feedback request. Why?
The more users (and Pro users in particular) that ask for something, the quicker you will get it.
BTW in Alibre there is indicator in assembly mode which tells the user that some particular part is not completely build in part design. This is very handy since you can easily forget to 'roll to end' and then assemblies brake or there are missing parts.

Can I make an IR for Onshape employees being able to write IRs on behalf of pro users on demand - so that it would have same value as written by user? It kind of hits on my eyes/ear every time I see Ons employee asking for paying customers to report something again 'formally'.
I understand the idea but I think the actual mechanism needs some advanced tools to value also customer efforts to write in your official forum.
I much prefer the fact Onshape lets you continue to manipulate the assembly even if that part is rolled back.
That is one annoyance that I've had in SolidWorks. If you are editing a sketch in a part, it can prevent you from doing anything in the assembly because the part is rolled back.
I too wish Onshape had many more options for keybinds.
There is an improvement request out there for custom shortcuts.
You may want to add your vote there, also create a separate request for this specific binding.
