--- Comment #3 from [email protected] ---
I have replicated the bug using the steps in both the original description and
Comment 1, using the following build and configuration…
Apache OpenOffice 4.0.1; AOO401m5(Build:9714) - Rev. 1524958
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, Service Pack 1
Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 2.20 GHz, 4GB RAM

A potentially simpler set of reproduction steps:
1. Create a new Impress presentation or open an existing one.
2. Be sure you are in View->Normal mode.
3. If necessary, add a new slide so that you have at least two slides.
4. Make a slide other than the first visible in the main window.
5. Set focus on the slide in Step 4 by clicking it in the main window.
6. Press Page Up.
7. Notice in the Slides Pane sidebar that two slides are now selected.
8. If the presentation has more than two slides, it is possible to select 
   more by continuing to press Page Up.

Some follow-up tests reveal additional implications, once multiple slides are
selected as above:
1. Hiding one of the slides will result in hiding all selected slides.
2. Deleting one of the slides will result in deleting all selected slides.
3. Formatting or adding text to one of the slides WILL NOT result in changes to 
   all of the selected slides.

Further, the same multiple-selection behavior does not result from pressing
Page Down.

Implications for users:
The multiple selections are unexpected.  If a user does not notice it, (s)he
could inadvertently delete slides.  When preparing to give a presentation, the
user could inadvertently hide too many slides, leaving out important
information for the audience.

A workaround:
Once multiple slides are inadvertently selected, click any single slide in the
slide selection pane to remove the multiple selection.
