I don't like the "hold down the control key throughout" part - why not just
allow the space bar to set/clear the selection on the file/directory which has

I don't use Nautilus (see below).

It is, which is why I use the shell for file management tasks. If I need to
examine and act upon files and directories individually then dired mode in
Emacs is excellent.
