 Highlight a feature using the identify tool (if is not the first feature
 to be identified you'll need to click somewhere on the identify results
 pop up window), then activate the "select features" tool, the feature is
 immediately un-highlighted.

 I really don't know if is a feature or a bug, but from my user point of
 view the highlighted feature should remain so, after all I may have the
 need to select the exact feature that I just highlighted using the
 identify tool...
