[Bf-committers] Behaviour of "Select every Nth" for curves

[Sergey I. Sharybin]

Hi, Blender community!

There is such bug report in the tracker: 
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=21766&group_id=9&atid=498

I can't start working under it because i don't know how *should* this 
operator work.
There are two ways:
1. Use selection strategy when user selects some base points and then 
every Nth point from selected would be selected. In this approach i've 
got two questions: how should this operator if nothing is selected? and 
if only beizer point's handle is selected should such point become 
selected (it's about curve created from grease pencil where handles have 
got the same coordinates as point and when user tries to select point 
only handle become selected so select every Nth does nothing)?
2. Deselection strategy (as it's done for meshes). In this case i've got 
one question: from which point calculation of every Nth should be 
started? there is no information about the last selected point.

So in which way i should change this operator?
