Bug report #3314

Node tool does not allow multiple-selection when geometry is invalid

Description

To reproduce:

- Select a polygon layer and click the edit button

- Try to select multiple nodes using Ctrl-click. It should work.

- Using the node tool, move some nodes so that the polygon border crosses itself. A green x should be displayed at the intersection.

- Try to select multiple nodes using Ctrl-click. It won't work.

I can't see any reason why it is desirable for multiple-selection to be disabled when the geometry is invalid. The user may want to fix it by selecting multiple-nodes and deleting (or moving) them.
