This is a sneaky way of creating two global selections. That shouldn't be possible. And the action should be disabled if there's already a global selection.

Or, the selection mask will be refreshed when the second time it is executed?

Actually, Dmitry made it possible to load and save multiple global selections, so I think that this is fixed now.
