I had 4 responses to the question about picking a hollow or empty 
filled-area object with a visible border or edge.  3 agreed that, "yes", a 
mouse click in the interior picks the object.

Therefore, I interpret that there is unanimous approval for the "yes" 
interpretation.  We will clarify the offending (vague) language which 
raised the question.
