FileSelector focus showing when it shouldn't?
Q. And about FileSelectors, they used to not have the selection bar when not focused, and a HINT_FILE_SELECTOR_SHOW_SELECTION_EVEN_WHEN_NOT_FOCUS to change that. Now this hint seems to be forced on. A. When we added multi-selection to list objects, there were these big visual glitches with the selection bar. We really tried to fix it in other ways, but they all had their problems, and in the end, the fix ended up being one that caused the selection bar always to be shown (although maybe only for non-exclusive lists). The only case on the existing Lizzy software where a list could lose the focus anyway was in the file transfer view, which also used a thick black border to indicate focus. So it was decided that this change was OK. Kind of makes these hints worthless, though.
