Sculpt - paint selection bug?

Hello,

I have created a sketch one part is a spline. I extruded the sketch to a solid.

Then I went to Sculpt mode, choosed Modify-->Convert moved the mouse over the face create by the spline.

Then I activated the 'Paint selection' tool and selected a few faces.

Then I used the 'Edit Form' tool to push these faces downwards a littlebit.

So far no problem. Then I activated the 'Paint selection' tool again and tried to select the pushed down faces again.
But this does not work for some reason. I can only select those faces which I did not push down.
Then I did the same but this time I pulled up the faces. And here the 'Paint selection' works. It seems this happens only if I push down the faces.

I made a screencast of it to make it clear:

 

I have one more thing to complain but this is minor.

If I switch from Model workspace to Sculpt workspace the solid body gets a bright grey color.

Then if I activate Modify-->Convert to select a face to convert to T-Spline the selected face does not really distinguish from the other faces it is also very bright grey.

You can see it in the screencast at around 01:22. One cannot really see which of the faces are selected and which are not.

Is there any setting to make the colors more different?

 

Thanks...

Hi Phil,

 

what I mean is it should be corrected so that using 'Paint selection' the faces are selectable (with 'Select through' disabled) even if they are pushed into the ghost body.
'Select through' itself is fine for me.

And thanks for the alternate workflows, I will try that.
