It's clunky, but this is the most consistent way I've found so far to
select multiple tracks.
Have your mouse cursor locked to your VO cursor for this to cut down
on keystrokes. Then in the edit window, interact with each track you
want to select and shift+click the name which should be the first row
you land on after interacting. Note that the click has to be done on
the physical mouse or trackpad, and if you use the latter, trackpad
commander can't be turned on.

This workflow would be halved if VO could pass modifiers along with
clicks to the focused application, but it doesn't. I've already
written to Apple about it and used some of their own GarageBand and
Logic modifier tricks as the examples, but would encourage you to do
the same.
