Any harm in increasing the number of IDs reported upper left ?

Like the list vertcies 1,4, 7, 9

to 1, 4, 7, 9, 11, 13


So that IDs of hexagon verts might also get included before threshhold is reached and its just says 7 vertices selected.

I would like to puch the limit up from < 5 to < 7


I'm suspicous that this was picked somewhat arbitrarily. If this would be annoying ... maybe I could make it a preference. I have bumped it up for myself and a fabricator who needs to interograte the model sometimes and uses this as a debugging tool.

I just wanted to ask first rather than just do a pull-request for change. I can always patch this later.

In real work apps ... Hexagons are common in nature and both hexagons and pentagons appear in any number of natural "FOAMS". I don't think the same is true for higher order polygons so much. I think the hexagon is at least arguabbly a good cut off. I personally think quads is not so great a cut-off.
