New info as obtained by reading Bug 54679

I now speculate that the changes made to the cell indicator moving with
Shift-arrow were intentional to better emulate Excel and Gnumeric.  I can
confirm that with Gnumeric, range selection does NOT move the active cell
selected, which matches the changed/current LibreOffice 4 behavior.

HOWEVER, Gnumeric (and presumably Excel) do NOT have a problem with
Shift-Control-arrow behavior like LibreOffice 4.0.X does.  This indicates
someone probably made a haphazard change to the Shift-arrow behavior in
LibreOffice without testing or considering that this would completely screw up
Shift-Control-arrow behavior (which is described in detail in above postings).

There is still no question this is a severe regression bug, but it does put a
new twist on understanding how it happened to come about.
