It will. Please read the design page :-) My point is that there is a small restriction on drag-select, which is that you can only do it in an additive fashion. If you wish to have the selection be only the things you drag-select, then you need to clear any existing selection before you do the drag-select. > Most graphics apps work like that.

I am only attempting to respond to a problem which participants on this list tell me is real. I suppose there is no reason why unmodified drag, starting in an empty area, should not do a (resetting) drag-select. But people seem to think that this should not be the only method.
