 The on-screen icon to create a rectangular marquee and select a certain
 area of the canvas varies depending on how the tool is selected. It's
 either a rectangle with a dashed border or a cross-hairs. The cross-hairs
 would be the most logical and functional choice for this icon 100% of the
 time.

 To recreate: select the brush tool and draw on the canvas. Then select the
 marquee tool. At this point when you hover over the canvas it should be
 the rectangle with the dashed border. Next use the marquee tool to select
 an area and move that selection. Now deselect that area and use the
 marquee tool again. You'll see that it has now changed to the cross-hairs
 icon. It will remain this icon until you follow the above sequence of
 using the brush tool (or pencil tool) again.
