1. ¿Can I select/highlight all the positions in the grid where one tile of the tileset has been used?  Some sort of "Right Click on a tile/Show on map" (it could even be the default action when clicking on a tile in the tileset)

2. ¿Could I then replace all that positions with one tile?

These features would be useful for clean-up works (mainly the first one). When I get a tileset+map using Shoebox from a complete map image, I get many similar tiles (for example when cutting terrain/water tiles). I'd like to see where each tile is been used to determine which is the "main" tile and which are "noise" tiles that I could replace with the "main" one.

Thanks for your great product.

Hey Raúl,
 
They're good ideas but unfortunately not yet available in the current version of Tiled. They are already covered by the following issue on github:

Oh man, I would totally love that.  Sometimes my tileset changes and a tile moves to another place, and I need to figure out what needs to be changed on the map.

One workaround I've done is to temporarily mark all the old versions of the tile with red in the tileset image.  Then I can find them on the map, and delete/replace them as necessary.
