compound path mask bug
When a compound path serves as a mask AND has it's own color, objects inside it can not be selected with the Direct Selection-tool. Instead, the mask itself is selected. This is different from single-path masks, where objects inside can be selected with the Direct Selection-tool (even when the mask has it's own color).
In attached file, both masks contain the same purple rectangle. In the 'g' (a compound path), the rectangle cannot be selected with the Direct Selection tool. In the 'K', it can. Both masks are colored.

Well, it will start to work, if you open Layers palette, locate your compound clipping path, select it there and then send backwards (Ctrl+Shift+[).
But still it is a bug, voting.
