 This exists in my 'selectplus' plugin, along with selecting by circle
and polygon and inverting the selection.

 Note that it will probably fail on projected geometries since it only
works on the layers coordinate system and not the projected screen
coords. Or something like that. You'll find it here:

 If the problems with coordinates can be fixed it's definitely
something I'd like to see supported by the core group though!
