Sort of helps with that and also the 'modify with a paint tool' is using the quick mask. Bottom of the Selection menu or Shift-Q or the little icon bottom left in the main Gimp window. see: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-image...utton.html  

Toggle on/off just to 'see' the selection or use Black/White to paint in or out the selection. The x key toggles FG/BG to make this easier.

Okay, reading the help was good, but your video illustration really made it very clear. Thanks!
