Public bug reported:

Every time you click on a desktop icon to do something (open it, open
the menu context, etc) the icon gets selected and the selection won't
disappear until you click elsewhere in the desktop. The behavior is
against the usual expectation that the thing gets selected just to carry
on an action on it and don't stay selected afterwards. Indeed, opening a
folder or file, opening a context menu, etc. are actions that usually
don't require selection at all. It's weird having those selected icons
sitting there all the time in orange.
