Well, till this will be implemented, create a path, maybe with intelligent scissors, and you can get gimp display that path. I don't know if you're aware the traditional/correctional modes...
The corrective mode does indeed provide a good workaround for the missing preview. Unfortunately a lot of users are not aware of this mode or don't understand how it is supposed to be used. Perhaps this needs to be better documented but I just checked the help and it seems to be well explained.,,
