You should be able to get this to work in response to a Browse Tool click if you specify script actions for particular leaf nodes.

Inspectors > Action > Runs a Script

and enter or paste something like the following:

Code:

set selection of front window to GetPath(self, true, true)

on GetPath(oShape, blnNodes, blnLinks)
	tell application id "OGfl"
		set lstIncoming to incoming lines of oShape
		if lstIncoming ≠ {} then
			set oLink to first item of lstIncoming
			set lstPath to my GetPath(source of oLink, blnNodes, blnLinks)
			if blnLinks then set lstPath to lstPath & {oLink}
			if blnNodes then set lstPath to lstPath & {oShape}
		else
			if blnNodes then
				set lstPath to {oShape}
			else
				set lstPath to {}
			end if
		end if
		return lstPath
	end tell
end GetPath

This works in editing view, but I notice that it generates an error in presentation view. A quick note to the Ninjas thru Help > Send Feedback … may enable you to learn whether there is a syntax which enables script-driven selection in presentation mode.
