I think this is because you click on your message somewhere, so the
cursor is set somewhere "random" in the message. Then shift-click is
the windows standard for selecting a block of text. So how is TB
supposed to know which you want to do? Admittedly it is a bit of a
shame that ctrl-click wasn't used, but I guess nobody really thought
of this slight interaction.
