We used to be able to do a "spatial join without creating a new feature class" in AV 3.x. This would be a most useful tool for everyday use it seems without creating useless feature classes that you have to go back and delete.
Esri, can't you bring this tool back from the archives for ArcGIS 10.1.x???
I would really like to see it added to the Toolbox!
It would be nice to be able to create a simple spatial join without having to make a new output feature class. Many times I find myself needing to populate an attribute from one feature class into another feature class based on location. It'd be great if I could make a spatial join similar to the normal table-table join, and then simply "remove join". Because there are times when a new output is desired, maybe a radio button to choose between "New Output" or "In-Process".
