Ah, that makes sense.

If the two surfaces are so close together that they're practically on top of each other, I can see this happening --- the location of the surfaces at any given point along it will be so close together that one or the other may appear mathematically closer to the camera/mouse. That may be why AC3D exhibits seemingly randomness regarding which surface is selected.

Unfortunately I don't have a solution to the problem of single-click-select-through --- perhaps performing a very small rubber-band select within the surfaces will do the trick?
