here it's applied only on the editmesh till its accepted ... after that the same changes will applied to the lattices, curves ... etc.

Update the behaviour to the following

Curves
Objects
Lattices

Generally looks ok, about having switch inside the loop, IMHO it would be better to have ED_base_object_select(base, select); and similar for other modes, if we need to add a switch later for a 3rd action, it can be done at that time.

source/blender/editors/object/object_lattice.c
203	This only needs to be done on de-selection, when adding to the selection the active element can stay.
