Layout object selection tip of the day

I’ve known about this for a while, but I feel a contextual menu would be so much better for this (I admit selecting the tool instead of an object was not known to me):

To In Layout mode do this
Select all objects of the same type, including objects on tab panels or slide panels that are not in front (for example, all text objects or all rectangles) (1)- Click the tool for the type of object to select, then choose Edit menu > Select All . (2)- Or, with the arrow pointer, click an object, press Shift (Windows) or Option (macOS), and choose Edit menu > Select All (Windows) or Select Same (macOS). (3)-Note Objects on popovers are not selected.
