--- Comment #26 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
A <Ctrl>+click multi-select is not universal, look at multi-select for any
graphics/CAD based project, and the text/graphics widgets of any X11 based GUI.
Word Perfect and WordPerfect Office actually followed that legacy (dropped with
Linux support). As does LibreOffice's pedigree. So assertion otherwise is not
valid.

And, this remains a training and RTM issue for users coming from other Windows
based suites. The actual volume of users claiming UX impact is negligible.

IMHO => WF *is* the appropriate UX recommendation--nice to do but no
imperative. 

But any dev so inclined to take on enhancing the modifier handling of providing
alternate in the selection code (per module) is welcome. 

Just no blanket change from <Shift>+ multi-selection to <Ctrl>+ selections.
