That bit still works, what you do not get are the 'crawling ants'

One difference is as long as the selection nodes are visible the nodes can be
moved. see screenshot:

Not a bug

Otherwise: 

If unclosed, "Enter" fixes the selection (crawling ants) or selecting another
tool fixes the selection.

If closed, as well as "Enter" or another tool  a double click inside the
'editable outline' fixes the selection.

a little inconvenient - you soon get used to the change. Nothing stands still
including Gimp.
