Selection box works for me on OSX with patch applied.

Regarding to pass or not the event as Wayne mentions, regular canvas
appears to do the same as I did on the patch (see common/draw_panel.cpp
line 1404-1405).

Does anyone actually got the beep on GAL on other platforms? If not I can
dig a little and check if it something with wxOSX specifically.
