RASA star halo & Mask ability to create perfect circles

Would be nice if in mask, the user could create a perfect circle. Like point the mouse on the screen and with mouse wheel enlarged a perfect circle.

The lasso in most cases is not adequate to mask a perfect circular star halo.

It could then be used to create a mask for very large star halo. The RASA creates huge halo that must be fixed using shrink or heal module.
A suggestion to improve on the Mask module.

On a similar vane, if I do a single pixel and then grow blob the star I am covering the mask grows very angular, or grow used on a auto star mask grows increasingly angular so in the end my star is covered by a diamond type shape. It would be lovely if the star shape mask were to grow retaining a circular profile please.
