(tested in a live session of Cinnamon as well as a fully-updated local installation as of 2022-07-15)
Describe the bug
When you do a rectangle select, you must wait for the selection rectangle to fully fade out before pressing the 'Delete' key; if you press the 'Delete' key within 100ms or so after releasing left-click, nothing will happen.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
boot into Mint 21 beta Cinnamon (whether a local installation or a live session)
create some blank files or folders on the desktop
highlight those newly-created folders via a rectangle selection box but do not release left-click just yet
position your hand that is not on the mouse over the 'Delete' key on your keyboard
let go of left-click
immediately after step 5, press the 'Delete' key on your keyboard
...nothing happens
Expected behavior
The highlighted files should have been deleted.
Additional context
If you instead wait the additional half of a second to let the rectangle selection box fully fade out and then press the 'Delete' key, then the delete action will work.
