[Ipe-discuss] Precisely select symbols taken from component library

Thanks for the hint. If the entire component were highlighted in
addition to the reference point, your suggestion were the exact right
procedure for me.
In the proposed example three reference points are located on the very
same place -- indicated by the red cross. So hitting space after
selecting the intersection point, I cannot distinguish which of the
three components is selected, as only the reference points are highlighted.
