That sentence doesn't make sense to me.. ;-)
Also, it doesn't indicate any difference between checking and unchecking the
option.

Still hard to get ones head around, I fully agree. The useful example in Help
is really needed (and still pending ;) )
However, it is surely more descriptive than the term "legacy behavior" not? And
I guess the amount of characters is limited.
I thought about  "... selected row/column ..", which gives more of a clue.
My understanding would be that checking, would activate the foo-behavior.
