That was exactly the point. The helper function convert the
multi_selection, ext_rect to the legacy struct. This way the drivers
needed almost no modification, just a call to the helper at the
beginning of the handler.

Otherwise we need your get_rect helper, and then a set_rect helper at
every exit.

If you think this is the way, then lets do it. Right now there are not
too many drivers that supports selection, so it is right time to make
such a decisions.

Just one comment. On the bmp standard a negative height means that the
image is upside down. With multiple selections it could be a nice
thing to allow such a behavious, so one selection can be inverted (if
all are inverted, I guess vflip is more correct).
