I will confirm what you are saying.  But it is NOT an "enhancement".

You mentioned Excel and Gnumeric.  I just tried Gnumeric.  It is true that
Gnumeric does not move the active cell indicator with Shift-arrow or
Shift-Control-arrow.  However, Gnumeric is also not *broken* when selecting
ranges that way.  LibreOffice is now *broken* and this can be seen in Bug
61534.

So it looks like someone decided to change LibreOffice calc to act like Excel
and Gnumeric when using ranges (Shift-arrow) and proceeded to break it when
using Shift-Control-Arrow because they didn't test it properly and realize that
other code would have to be changed too.

This is a severe regression bug.  I can understand wanting to have the choice
of old or new behavior for how the active cell moves or doesn't move, but it
breaking proper Shift-Control-arrow behavior is a bug and needs to be fixed
ASAP.
