Public bug reported:

I have no idea if I have filed this against the right package. It
happens in both Firefox and Chrome, whatever provides their file
selection dialog for uploads is apparently the problem, I don't know if
that's gnome shell or something else.

When I want to upload multiple files in a web browser, I can do that if
I hit shift, and then click another file. But, that selects not just the
two files that I clicked on, but every file in between them in the
dialog (which is the expected behaviour when shift clicking in a file
selection dialog). When I just want to select two files that are not
displayed next to each other, I expect to be able to Ctrl+click on the
files, and for them and only them to be selected. But, this doesn't
happen, the second file does not get selected when I do that.
