I think this problem is the same as the general problem of deleting a selection
of items from a python list. The general solution is to iterate through the
list of selected indices backwards.
eg:
>>> from Tkinter import *
>>> tk = Tk()
>>> lb = Listbox(tk, selectmode=EXTENDED)
>>> lb.pack()
>>> for i in range(10): # Inserting integers, so initially the item in each
... lb.insert(END, i) # position will be the same as its index.
...
>>> lb.curselection()
('2', '4', '5', '7')
>>> for i in lb.curselection()[-1::-1]:
... lb.delete(i)
...
>>> lb.get(0, END)
(0, 1, 3, 6, 8, 9)
>>>
