Description Peter Palm 2009-07-20 15:52:15 UTC 
Version:           onbekend (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.28.6

When I try to select multiple files using Shift+LMB, the first click already selects multiple items, but not the ones I want. It seems the start of the selection is chosen at random, and the file I press is the end of the selection. Please note that I click the name of the file, not the icon.

This happens in both dolphin, and the various 'open file' file requesters. (why don't the latter use the same selection scheme as dolphin, with the + and - on the file icons)
