Could be implemented? It would certainly maje the eraser tool way more powerful

If no selection, use bounding box of the eraser tool -red- contained
items, if there is selection use only selected items, retaining
selection after it. 

I also think it works throught layers, but not tested yet, maybe need
to switch 2 or 3 lines from current layer to top most.

Not sure about the speed, I try it in a very slow machine in the video.
I think I can speed a bit I need to put time marks to get the slower
processes.
