That feature makes it possible to select a range of vertices from one feature.
It can be activated by pressing Shift+R - afterwards one needs to click start and final point within a feature - this will selected all vertices between the two.
The range selection can be cancelled anytime by right-click or by pressing Esc key.
For closed curves (polygons), it is possible to switch to the "longer" way around the ring by holding Ctrl while clicking the final point.
