      Description

      The current selection behaviour for ace:list is to support multiple selection via mouse-clicks. This presents an issue when you've selected one or more rows in the list, re-ordered them, and would then like to select a different row or set of rows. You first have to click each previously selected row to deselect it, which is tedious.

      A better approach would be to support the standard keyboard modifier keys when doing list row selection, as follows:

      - Click (no modifier keys): Deselects any previously selected rows, selects the current row.
      - Ctrl/Command-Click: Selects the current row, keeps any previously selected rows selected.
      - Shift-Click: Selects the range of rows between the last selected row and the current one.
