I think this operator should treat all the objects as one, not as separated ones in a for loop.
See for example the file:

select_similar.blend60 KBDownload

In this case if you Select Similar > Direction it should select all the edges of both objects. Not the "horizontal" ones in the yellow, and the "vertical" ones in the blue.

it can be done with better performance by joining into a list of selected MetaElem and then search into all MetaBall targets, but it become complicated and unmaintainable.

There are other selected similar operators to refer to (pose, editmesh). We should use the same logic accross all of them. @Habib Gahbiche (zazizizou) maybe you are interested on tackling this after you are done with the curve operator?
