This is kind of an annoying answer, but it is possible by playing with display filters (View->Display Filters) to make the outline visible in the cases where it normally isn't. (This has no effect on your image, and can be turned off when you don't need it anymore.) Incidentally, this problem has nothing to do with marching ants -- the marching ants only appear after the selection is completed, and they show up fine. Anyway, this is a problem that if it were considered important would not really be that hard to solve, but nobody has ever considered it important enough to spend serious time on.
