Selection in freecad sketches is really bad. Box select with dragging the mouse doesn't work, you can't mask elements (make only points or only curves selectable), selections are added to the current selection instead of replacing it even if you aren't holding shift, and if you miss and click on the backgeound accidentally it unselects everything. And selections aren't part of history so if you spend five minutes selecting a lot of specific elements and then misclick once, welp do it all over again, no undo for you.
There are a few tool buttons like "selected constraints related to the currently selected element" which are really helpful though.
