Still allow the selecting of bones while Paint mask is active
Currently selecting a bone while paint mask is active (Ctrl+Left click) selects a single face.
In normal weight paint mode this selects the bone. I believe you can only select a different bone by turning Paint mask off, selecting the bone and turning it back on.
The selection does make sense, but a different shortcut to still allow selecting of the bone would would be nice.

but you can do this in blender 2.8, yes, selecting bones with the paintmask active. but for some reason in blender 3.0 i can´t do this anymore.
I thought about this for a while, and here is what I came up with: Make the shortcut for
paint.weight_sampleSinstead ofCtrl Right Mouse. (This would make sampling shortcut consistent with the other paint modes.) ThenCtrl Right Mousecould be used to select bones regardless of mode.
