Swap Selection order for Bounding Box Rectangle Command

we can create a Bounding Box Rectangle (lets say BBR) for almost any object by known shortcut. but after creation, CDR choose to select the BBR, which in my workflow this is wrong. this should be the opposite; after creating the BBR of selected object, CDR should select the selected objects back again.
This forces you to select many objects again on some cases and delete them, where you only need a BBR of this. But I want to delete the selected objects by one delete button which is possible by an improvement.
An example for this idea is, lets say you have very broken, distorted fonts or basic rectangle shapes that are actually looks rectangle but they have thousands of nodes. You could avoid cleaning all this mess by just creating a BBR and because Corel Selects the previous selection back again you just delete and get rid of them. everyone is happy.
