More Filters for Selecting Actors In Scene Design Mode

When making a game with many minimal actors layered over each other on the same layer, it can become difficult to select the one you actually want. To eliminate the need to make so many layers, it would be great if the scene design mode included a way to filter which actors you can select by actor type . (Much like the "single layer" button filters which actors can be selected.) In other words, if I have a rock actor, a dirt actor on top of the rock and a grass actor on top of that on the same layer, it's very hard to select the rock actor. In doing so, it often screws up the z-index of these actors. If I could filter the selection by actor type, it would become easy to select the actor I want and I wouldn't have to create umpteen layers to keep them easy to select. :)
