As I'm working with developing a "gear" concept with the Extension > Render > Gear > Gear tool (in Inkscape) I'm finding that I am constantly selecting a large group of 'specific' nodes in my shape. Each time I try something new with those nodes and then have to undo, I have to meticulously re-select each node again. It's tedious and I wondered if there was some kind of 'remember selection' option for working with large numbers of arbitrary nodes within a drawing?

No, there is not.

There are a few useful shortcuts for re-selecting nodes though:


Drag the mouse (and Shift+drag) to select a bunch of nodes
Use Ctrl+PgUp to "grow" the selection with adjacent nodes
Use ! to invert the node selection.


Take a look at the Node Tool's keyboard shortcuts; you may find some of these can help you get your selection back faster.

AFAIK, no.
You can file a feature request in the Inkscape bug tracker.
