Unfortunately thats down to the way the wxWidgets seperates the
concept of the selected cell (which has a thick border) and selected
regions (which are usually coloured blue). When you do a shift-select,
it does it from the selected *cell* to the position you click.
I don't believe there much we can do about that, except perhaps to
programatically move the selected cell to any row as it's selected. I
suspect that might have some odd side effects though.
