Right click and selection

There's something I don't like about ROX's current behaviour. If you
have one or more files/directories selected and right-click over another
file that isn't selected, the selection doesn't change and any actions
in the menu apply to the previous selection instead of the item you've
just clicked.

I can't remember what RISC OS does/did, but I'm pretty sure most other
file managers replace the selection with the item you've clicked over
and it's what I'd expect to happen. I've accidentally deleted the wrong
thing at least once. Please could this feature be changed.

Another feature of other file managers I miss in ROX is shift-click to
select everything between the current selection and the clicked item.
