Yep! I noticed that as well. Here's another one to entertain you:

  1. Select an item.
  2. Press Shift+Down.
  3. Press Shift+Up.

It should go back to just one item selected, but it actually jumps and selects the original item and the one above it. Same thing happens in reverse.

Anyway, I just spent the last 90 minutes testing and locating the problem, then writing it up for the team. It turned out to be a weird race condition where we lose track of the most recently selected item when going from 1 to 2 selected items. This just started with a change that was made a couple months ago to improve something else. I have a few ideas for how to fix it, so we just need to decide on the best way and get it done.

Thanks again for the report!
