 I think the row selection on attribute table can be improved in some ways:

 1. Dragging the vertical header should select multiple rows.

 2. The single click shouldn't toggle the row selection (for selected
 rows). Instead, it could be done using Ctrl+Click.

 ( Please look at the screencast [ 1 ] to find a visual explanation of 1.
 and 2. )

 3. The Ctrl and Shift keys should be captured even if they are pressed out
 of the attribute table window. (Currently this keys only work if they're
 pressed when the Table View has the focus)
