A frontscript could do what you want,
in the palette PenTool, every tool
uses a frontscript to work on the
target only if it: 
1- is a polygon graphic
2- have some custom properties, etc.
3- it's name is not "auxiliarGraphic"
etc...

In an earlier version, not released, i tried to
simulate the pointer tool behavior using a 
frontscript and the browse tool, but that proved 
to be a big problem while using the palette in 
the development environment.

For that test, i used an auxiliar vector graphic 
to identify the graphics selected.

The auxiliar graphic adopted the shape of all
graphic selected. By clicking the graphics, 
i was adding or (using shift click) deleting 
their points from the auxiliar graphic.
