Description
Currently, individual shapes can be selected and erased through the canvas controls on dcc.Graph:
However, it would be useful to be able to click on multiple shapes and erase them collectively. Perhaps using a CTRL-based clicker similar to how some OS file browsers allow a custom selection of files to be selected.

Research direction
Start by examining the existing canvas controls in dcc.Graph and the current behavior for selecting and erasing one shape. Determine how a CTRL-based multi-selection should work, then verify that multiple selected shapes can be erased collectively without affecting unselected shapes.
