And also when deleting, everything else is correct.

There are users who like the current behavior, there are those who don't.  IMO
adding an option in the settings (e.g. General > Miscellaneous) to allow the
user to explicitly make their choice is the most optimal solution in this case.

Additionally, I was interested in this comment
(https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/10tm5jz/comment/j790r6q/?context=3):

I thought it would be great to have a separate page for configuring the
selection mode, but I'm sure you would never go for that.
