Might be a neat feature to put some use to texture preview window and allow to paint texture on it and select faces. The way I see it work is following: figure out which face we're clicking and what relative left and up coordinates to that face we are, then cast a ray forward from some far-away point (think of it as side orthographic projection), then just proceed as with regular selection. Also render cursors in texture window if it is currently in use.
