Yup. And the remaining 5% which is core needs improvement.

Sure it does. Let's take, for example, non-conformity to the CUA
standard. Open up TB, pick a folder with > 10 messages in it. Now, on the list
view do this. Select message #1. Hold shift and select message #3. Now,
press control and select message #6. Now, still holding control, hold also
shift and select message #10. The end result should be messages #1-#3, #6-#10
selected. TB!, however, deselects #1-#3 when you do the second shift and you
only get #6-#10. It does not recognize the CNTL-SHIFT behavior.
To confirm this, open a folder with >10 files in it in a list view. Try
the above steps. You'll find two groups selected with #4, #5 not selected.
This is a problem with the base interface, part of the core program that
should have been fixed many, MANY revisions ago. In fact, I submitted a bug
report on it a few months ago. I'd guess at least 1.35 or so?
To but it another way, TheBat! just blew out. :P
