I've seen a lasso selection solution incorporated into D3. Wondering if it's possible to incorporate it into react-force-graph-2d. It's an amazing library and appreciate any input. Best Regards!

I believe it should be possible, if you overlay an element where you can draw the lasso shape, and then figure out which nodes it encompasses by cross checking their positions. But I haven't seen a specific example that does exactly that.

Thanks for the input. I'll let you know about any progress...
