I don't particularly like signals with return values, and didn't see any
compelling reason to make it a signal instead of a function.  It'll be
faster when selecting a large area.  I was also trying to avoid emitting
a signal for every selection event, as people always try to keep an
internal selection list in sync with the real selection with that, and
they often get it wrong.
