[flexcoders] Cannot multiple select rows after deleting row from a List

[e_baggg]

I was able to recreate this issue in a very simple example included
below. If I select a row, delete it (which auto selects the next
row)...if I then Shift-click another row...the highlighted row is not
included in the selected group. Any future shift-clicks from this
point work as expected. has anyone encountered this? I included a
sample Flex 2 mxml app with steps. Thanks in advance for your help:

        var highestIndex : int = getEmailWithHighestIndex(selectedIndices);

        highestIndex++;

Shift-click 'ee'. This should select both rows but it does not. Why??? "/>
