Edit select too sensitive

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It grabs too much - it needs to use Intersects instead of BBOX (Identify uses 
Intersects)

If I use the Identify tool to draw a box in the hollow of a line in "911 
Streets to Edit":

(see attachment)

It gets 0 features which is correct.
This is the request and response:

If I do the same with the Edit tool I get the feature.

This is the request:

As you can see, Intersects is more accurate than BBOX.  It may be slower, but I 
think we need accuracy for editing. Note that the syntax of providing the 
coordinates is a little different.
This should be pretty simple to fix.  We made Charlton switch over, he was also 
using BBOX initially.

This is resolved in r171.  Fix was to change the spatial filter type to 
"intersects" rather than BBOX

Seems to work much better now.
