Why that improvement is not part of official krita 4.2 Relase ?
The changes were sent after the installers were made. Binaries for distribution are prepared a few days before realease. This changes will probably be available in 4.2.1 :) In the mean time for multiple selections click on the name part of the layer

Bug still appear in Krita 4.2.1 even if in release note we read that is solved ;)
This is ongoing: Shift click on the thumbnail will work only if the layer is not a parent layer (either group or have masks applied) unless we select it, but if we do select it multiple selection breaks. I prefer to select using name area, but i will send the change to make it multiselect on thumbnail. This of course will make selection on groups not possible if pressing the thumbnail.
