bug(?): Multi-select breaking in `System Setup` & `Utilities` tabs

This is not a bug. This is intentional behaviour.

I'm keeping this issue open for conversation about this.

Describe the bug

See the video below.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch linutil
2. Enable multi-select mode
3. Change tabs to System Setup or Utilities
4. multi-select breaks :'(

This is intentional behaviour, look in the tab data for those two. Why was it done? I'm not really sure. @jeevithakannan2 would have to help you out with that.

You're right. I should've looked. I'll update the issue. I think I understand that we may not want multi-select in "more important" sections or whatever but

1. the average user doesn't know that their whole "queue" is just going to disintegrate like that
2. only some of the scripts in System Setup for example are really "dangerous". Most of Utilities scripts are very easily revertable

I think this should be removed or multi-select should be refactored.

[jeevithakannan2]

I am working on disabling multi selection for individual scripts. Will create a PR in a couple of days. Which will also not clear the queue.

[adamperkowski]

Okay. Make sure to link the PR. I'll keep this issue open.

Okay !!
