Pattern selection for meshes ("select next active" upgrade)

The ability to, once we have selected a set of faces, repeat the selection pattern all over the mesh.

It would allow us to make checkboard patterns really easilly for example :

1° We set the pattern on a part of the mesh i.imgur.com/wpIICec.png

2° We extend the pattern to the rest of the mesh i.imgur.com/r45cJPR.png

Blender already have a feature that acts a bit like this: "select next active" but it's restricted to the two last elements of a mesh selected so that cant be used to make complex pattern selection.
