I expected the highlighted part to take the shape of the tiles the rail occupies (like with the actually built rails) but it instead appears to be one rectangle defined by the ghost rail's extremities. This also works with the other planners (though upgrade can't select rails in vanilla).
Reproduction
  1. Take the following blueprint:
  2. Place it in world and don't build (if you want, place a second one to actually build for a side-by-side)
  3. Go to map view and zoom out so it's "abstracted"
  4. Equip any planner and select the ghosts

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next release.
