Did something break with the selection?

Actually:

Works: RGB8, Gray8, Rgb16float, Rgb32float
Don't work: RGB16, Gray16

The pattern I see here is that the color space that have more than 8bits and 
use the new composite ops have a problem. My guess is that they don't treat 
the selection value correctly, my hypothesis is that they use it as 8bits and 
don't scale it as 16 bits, which is my current most likely hypothesis, based 
on the behaviour of the "build up" mode while painting on a selected area.

Oh and related to this bug:
