SUMMARY
Dolphin is automatically selecting a (related) file when another file is
selected.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
In my usage scenario what I am doing is combining a number of wav files into a
dts file and then muxing the resulting dts file with a video file, typically a
h264 file to create an m2ts file. After completing this operation I spot check
the m2ts file for completeness before moving it to a separate storage folder.
After this I delete all of the component files that are either direct or
indirect components of the m2ts file, all of which are in different folders
under a common higher level folder.

When I select some of these component files to delete Dolphin is also selecting
the finished file so when I press delete the finished file is scheduled for
deletion as well as the selected file(s). There is an element of randomness
here, it does not every time although most times and it seems not to matter
which component files I select.

OBSERVED RESULT
By selecting one or more files in a directory Dolphin also appends another
recently used file in another directory. So without carefully checking the
delete list I end up deleting my finished work.

EXPECTED RESULT
That only the files I click on are selected.
