Current Dolphin behavior vs. Windows Explorer

I'd really like to be able to select files and folders (in detail view) with a
rectangular selection, i.e. not selecting whole rows but just the elements
under the rectangle expanded via the mouse, as in Windows Explorer.

Attached are the current behavior and explorer behavior.

I think it would be extremely useful and user-friendly for those like me coming
from Windows
