Check if a datapoint is already selected inside Custom Visual

[JohnTheDoe]

Within update() function of IVisual, is there a way to check if a datapoint(and its corresponding SelectionID) is already selected? 

I could use getSelectionIds() and then brute force search the entire array one by one to find a match, but I feel that it would be very slow, expecially with large amounts of data.

To check if a data point is selected you should use getSelectionIds and compare SelectionIds by using equals or includes methods.
