Selection Filter - Why is Faces by Intellishape Listed?

Within the drop-down list of the Selection Filter (bottom right corner of Status Bar), is shown "Faces by intellishape". Why is this listed here?

This is a tool (Faces to Intellishape) rather than a selection filter, and I can't get it to work anyway. Unless I am missing something (which is possible), to avoid confusion I suggest that this item be removed from this selection filter list. Instead, this tool could be added to the "Direct Edit" Panel, along with the other face editing tools.

I disagree, the selecting by "Faces by intelishape" can be quite handy sometimes, it enables one click to select all the faces I'm after and a right click , "create - Extract Surface" and I'm away.

Can't say I use Faces to intellishape that much, if at all, I tend to use the Sew and solidify in the surface menu.

Yes what Nick stated is correct. That filter does select all the faces of the selected intellishape which is useful in things like pockets as well. The right-click command on the selected face to convert is for the brep to feature level command. Different command but a similar naming. I can see how it could be confusing.
