I use the Lasso on nodes all the time, it's an integral part of my
workflow.

Is something not working on your inkscape?

Possibly... Box-select works, but holding alt does not produce a lasso-select line as it does with objects.

By lasso, I don't mean box-select, I mean draw an irregular (non-rectangular) shape around nodes to select them.

This has never worked for me.
