Tom, I agree with you. A user should not have to have a blank list before ctrl clicking.

Subject: [katello-devel] multi-select in lists
I'd like to raise how multiple items are selected in a list since it seems a bit non-intuitive to this user.
Currently to select multiples the steps are:
1. Have nothing selected in list
2. Ctrl-click or shift-click to get the first item
3. Ctrl-click or shift-click to add more items
It's that first step that really threw me off. The way list selection works elsewhere (every where else?) is:
1. Click an item
2. Ctrl-click or shift-click to add more
Is there a reason for the difference in our list selection behavior?
To further confuse the issue, ctrl-click of an already selected item does not unselect it but instead selects it, thus clearing all other selected items. In our current paradigm this now-selected item needs to be unselected before other items can once again be multi-selected.
Hopefully that reads as bad as it feels to me. :)
Thoughts?
