no outlines in object mode in orthographic view - top, left, etc.

Description

Win 10, GTX 1080

Take a cube without top and bottom faces, just walls:
In 2.79 in object mode, in orthographic view top, left, right. etc., there were outlines visible when object was selected:

It's not the case any more in 2.80 2018-12-21 9dde3e42a7c5 :

The only way to see the object in this view right now is in edit mode. I think those outlines should always be visible, not only when selected. It would help people who work a lot in orthographic view.

I am having an issue where I can't see lattices if I'm not in edit mode, this might be related to the same issue.

This is a limitation of the new outline algorithm, so not really a bug. We are aware of the issue and we will consider improving it in the future.

Hey clément,

You are very busy at the moment with the 3D viewport I noticed.
This issue that unselected flat objects are not visible in the viewport really needs attention.. that this call is "invalid closed" makes no sense
