Description
I have an issue where every time I click inside the polygon, it selects that polygon and I can't select anything else inside it. I was wondering if there is a way to select polygons only when clicking on their boundaries rather than the inside. So that I can still interact with the part of the map that is inside the polygon.
Thank you.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing polygon selection in mapbox-gl-draw and tracing the selection behavior for interior versus boundary clicks; done means boundary clicks select the polygon while interior map interactions remain available.
