Description David Cummings CLA 2006-11-09 15:47:14 EST 
The selection tool ignores all connections whose end points are another connection.  This was discovered during the investigation of GMF Bugzilla #162083.

I could not find any GEF-only examples where connections between connections are used, but this bug can be reproduced using the GMF logic diagram example.

Steps:
- Create a GMF logic diagram.
- Create 4 notes (N1, N2, N3, N4) on the diagram.
- Connect N1 to N2 and N3 to N4 with note attachments.
- Connect the 2 note attachments together with another note attachment.
- Using the selection tool, draw a rectangle around the note attachment between the 2 note attachments

Result:
- Nothing on the diagram is selected

Expected:
- The connection contained within the rectangle created by the selection tool should be selected
