Bug - Clipping plane gets selected even when not visible in display mode

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a scene with objects and a clipping plane
  2. For a particular view, disable the clipping plane
  3. In this view, change the display mode so that clipping planes are not visible
  4. Do a rectangular selection over the objects (or try to click in the place where the hidden clipping plane is)
  5. Clipping plane gets selected.

Compare to:

  1. Create a scene with objects and a clipping plane
  2. For a particular view, enable the clipping plane
  3. In this view, change the display mode so that clipping planes are not visible
  4. Do a rectangular selection over the objects (or try to click in the place where the hidden clipping plane is)
  5. Clipping plane does not get selected.

Expected behaviour:

Clipping planes in a view in which they are hidden by display mode should not ever be selectable by mouse. It’s then easy to accidentally move or delete them when working in a single viewport.

Currently using latest Rhino 8. But seems like this bug has been there forever, I could recreate it even in R6.
