           Summary: Bug with the outline selection tool for advanced
                    selection technique
           Product: krita
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified

SUMMARY
1) This bug is about the outline selection tool.
But first, I want to recall that using the polyline tool, it's still not
possible to switch to the outline selection using modifier keys while drawing
the perimeter of the selection area. And changing the parameters of this
selection tool isn't possible in the settings menu.

Alright. So the bug manifests as follows : with a first selection area active,
it's impossible to add a new one should you switch to the polyline tool as you
draw the new perimeter of the additional selection area.
Because doing so results in an unexpected behavior which either cancels all the
selection areas, or cancels the new perimeter you draw. 
The only way so far to add multiple selection areas is to avoid the use of the
CTRL modifier key, meaning that you can't switch to the polyline tool after
your first selection area is done

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a selection area with the outline selection tool
2. Try to build a new selection area to add, but make sure you hold CTRL key to
try switching to the polyline tool as you draw it.

OBSERVED RESULT
The new area refuses to be added/subtracted or all your selections areas are
dismissed. So CTRL modifier key = cancellation for add/subtract use cases.
Not good.

EXPECTED RESULT
The new area should be added/subtracted depending on the modifier key you held
before releasing your pen/mouse, or before committing your selection area. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSION
Windows 10 1909
