Add a feature to all charts so that the selection of an area in a chart automatically selects all data points within the area. In other words, for all graphs, it should be possible to select an area with the mouse and automatically apply a filter to the page that selects only the datapoints included in the area that is being drowned.

RE: Area selection for any chart

To explain it better. Suppose we have a bubble chart displaying a measure by category. User can select one or more bubble with the CTRL + mouse, then automatically the category of each bubble are selected within the page. If the user would have the ability to draw an area which includes lot of bubbles, he could also select hundreds of bubbles in a second without having to hit 100 clicks...
