Wish: improvements in display of selected objects

the use of a selection color is quite problematic:

eg. yellow ist not an option in layout space, where you have a bright paper in the background.

also yellow limits the usability of other layer colors with a similar hue.

In drafting, I need to work with standards that require yellow layers. I can modify it in model space but it is confusing…

I suggest two options:

1
the ability to draw selected objects with thicker lines/edges

2
a CAD type of selection that uses dashed lines which draw in front of all other curves/edges. meaning dashed is not, dash+empty but dash+backgroundcolor, so that underlying lines/edges are not filling the spaces between the dashes.

Yep, I know - there is at least one item on the pile for this:

Making the selected curves thicker is the best way, in my opinion.
