Would "Flag Selected Records" perform anything else? Other than flagging the 
records being displayed in the Cluster view.  Or is that the feature your 
asking for only ?

Well the point is to select a group of records or creating a subset out of 
total records based on clustering information so that these records can be 
acted on later.

My specific requirement was to export the clustered records out of refine to 
perform some manipulation on a external database.

I think the word 'Instead' in this issue's title is misleading. I didn't 
realize it while creating the issue.
Any way I can change the title now ?

Title changed per original posters request.  Hopefully it's close to what you 
desire, but if not, please give us the text of the title you'd like.

It's possible to do this without much work with version 2.0: If you mouseover 
each cluster a link appears "Browse this cluster". Clicking this link will open 
a new window with that cluster selected. At that point it's straightforward to 
select All -> Edit rows -> Flag rows, or Export right there & then, etc.

The problem grows however with larger messier files.  In my case, I have a 
20,000 row file that gives me about 42 clusters in one column, which is cool.  
I would like this proposed feature to just Flag all the rows across all 42 
clusters, instead of having to click "Browse this cluster" and Edit rows -> 
Flag rows 42 TIMES.
