Basic Function of CTRL+Click to Select Discrete Files Does Not Work in TDE

All,

  Really strange behavior in 'konqueror --profile filemanagement' where you
cannot select multiple discrete filenames in konqueror by pressing the [ctrl]
key and clicking. The feature has always worked in KDE, but apparently has been
broken in TDE for a while. I just checked 3.5.13-sru-1 and it is broken there. I
can't believe this hasn't been flagged before now. Can someone please confirm
this on your install.

open konqueror file manager
select a directory so you are viewing multiple files on the right side
press and hole the [ctrl] key, now try and select multiple random files

(you should be able to select/deselect any file without changing your other
selections)

If you cannot select multiple files with the [ctrl] key pressed, let me know.
This is a break in fundamental chooser behavior in konqueror.

  I have confirmed this bug in both 3.5.13-sru and R14 branches and compared it
to correct behavior in openSuSE KDE3. KDE3 works just fine, TDE doesn't.
