Apparently that's broken in Impress 24.8.1.2 and works in 25.2 nightlies.

Some issues with this approach though:

1. Not a toolbar button
2. Requires pre-selection of objects
3. Requires remembering that the last selection is the master (and when you
rectangle-select multiple things - which one is "last" anyway?)
4. Requires two separate actions

Also - it doesn't work for lines, only shapes with area.
