Now I find that heading select doesn't trip off on capturing the localiser.  I have to manually turn it off before the localiser intercept, or I just keep going.

mmm, not for me. What I do:  Alt and Hdg hold both activated. When I'm correctly align to runway, put the knob in Auto GS and HDG will trip off. When GS moves, Alt hold also trips off.
