Selecting files with Shift pressed works same way as selecting them with Ctrl
pressed.

Don't know if this should be reported as a bug or enhancement.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. More than 2 files placed to desktop so that they are in a same "column" (top
of eacg other)
2. Select the first file by clicking it with mouse1 while holding shift
3. While still keeping Shift pressed, select the 3rd file
4. Only the 1st and 3rd file are selected, middle one should be selected also
