[imp] message selection in imp

[Michael Menge]

Hi,

some of our users don't like how the message selection in imp is  
currently handled.

If you click on es message to view it, the current selection is reset  
and the message gets selected.
The following three "issues" are reported.

1. If you want to delete/move multiple other mails you have to  
remember to deselect the message.

2. There is no way to view a mail without deselecting all selected  
mails. (e.g. you have selected
some mails to delete them, and you want to check one mail if it should  
be deleted or not.)

3. If you miss the selection box, your selection is reset.


One possible solution to these problems would be to make the message  
view independent from
the message selections.

Before I create a new feature request I would like to discuss the pro  
and cons, and
check if such a feature request  would have a chance to be accepted.


Regards

     Michael
