When running the initial lasso demo I found that only one lasso event was
allowed and other canvas interaction events (e.g. zooming) would not work
properly after the lasso event. As such I came up with my own solution to the
problem by modifying the example source. The primary addition was a button
release event call and a boolean to keep track whether the lasso was the last
event to lock the widget from interaction. Anyway, I hope it can help someone
else out.
Cheers,
Brian

This is currently a proof-of-concept implementation (though it is
