Indeed very shortly. As per uploading the buffer operation to the community 
space, we're running a ui redesign round based on your suggestion to use a

Also, on the immediate target there are design work going on for the 
implementation of the following:
Editing tools:
- clip
- trim
- split

Spatial Operations:
- intersect
