When you uncheck "Use GTK mouse selection" the selection can have odd side effects.

To reproduce:
Select a couple of items
Click and hold down on another item.
All 3 end up selected instead of just the last one that you might expect.

Not a bug. That's the way the "non-gtk" selection mode works. It will reselect
whatever was prevously selected if you do not release the mouse button or start
a drag action. The "non-gtk" selection mode has been removed from version 4.3
since it is confusing to many.
