Well, we have less than a week before our GSoC students are to begin
full-time work on Tux Paint!  Let's try to iron it out before then.

Albert, step me through how a user makes a single selection.
To me, it would seem easier for _most_ things to be able to simply
'draw around it' (i.e., Lasso tool we all know and love).  For large
objects, having to paint every inch of it seems tedious. :^/
