As in the video. Viewport is set to Shaded, Block Instance has custom Display Mode (Wireframe) but still, selection works like it would have been set to Shaded - it captures the selection making geometry behind difficult to select. Regular geometry with the same Display Mode configuration works as expected.
However, if I set the Wireframe Display Mode to the geometry inside the Block Definition and Block Instance it works ok, but this might be not desired as it affects all Block Instances.
