Improvement ideas to select an area

Hi,
just an idea to select an area in a view with the mouse ;

first onclick (left) define the start of the area in the view
SHIFT + onclick (left) define the end of the area

After use the 'Extractor' (Operator plugin) to choose 'Extract Section" or other extract operations.
or may be new 'right click' access for extract operations.

would this be technically feasible?

Best regards

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the view's mouse interaction entry point and the Extractor operator plugin, then determine how a selected area could be passed to Extract Section or other extract operations; done means the interaction is implemented and the resulting extraction behavior is verified.
