Log Message:
-----------
Addon: New mesh border selection operator ("Border Deselect Outer"). Deselects editmesh geometry, that is outside of the border selection you make with this operator. Only previously selected geometry is considered, it won't border select geometry that wasn't selected before. This is useful to create a selection intersection from previous selection.
