highlight whole line when an item is selected

It would be great if when user select an item in dolphin (detailed view) the
whole line is selected and not only up to the width of the file/folder name.
The selection process for now is painful when we try to select multiple items
holding ctrl, because the mouse pointer should reach for each selection the
text of the file/folder instead of just selecting easily the current line. So
The selection can be triggered by clicking anywhere on current line and not
until the mouse enter the item text name region.

Directly selecting the current line can minimize the path traversed by mouse
pointer to select multiple items, but with current state the mouse pointer
should make zigzag movement to reach each text name of the file especially with
long and short file/folder names.
