Description
When the pitch is non-zero, the box zoom gesture should cause a box to be drawn on the plane of the tilted map, rather than the plane of the screen. Hit testing should also be consistent with the map plane.

_How do I box-zoom Colorado while tilted? Should I start from the northwest corner as projected in tilt mode?_

Research direction
Reproduce the box-zoom gesture with a non-zero map pitch and compare the drawn box and hit testing against the tilted map plane. Trace the box-zoom and hit-testing entry points, then verify that both use the map plane consistently and that tilted Colorado can be selected as described.
