How to make sure you don't pick faces w. normals not facing you?

Only way I've found is to turn on backface culling from the polygon options in preferences

Like that? That's the way my settings are now :(

Hmm try and set it this way:

select your poly object, and then goto Display - > Custom Polygon Display options.

Set Backface culling to ON in the combo box and hit apply ;)

You can also use the paint selection tool

I'll look into the paint selection tool.
