You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Ctrl doesn't perform it's expected role of allowing multiple file
selection to occur when used in conjunction with the shift key.
For example, when selecting files A, B, C, D, E:
If I select files A thru C using: click A, shift+click C, continuing to
hold ctrl+click E should allow me to select the rest of the files,
however this is not the case.
Rather it will only select E, so that A, B, C, E are selected in total.
More self-experimentation will show that selection with ctrl+shift
result illogical file selection.
This is a standard feature in almost every OS I have run across, and I'm
not sure if it's just not implemented or if there are key conflicts that
cause this not to occur, but a default install of ubuntu should have
this enabled.
