Add visual indication to deselected directories with selected subrows
Automatically deselect directories whenever their children are deselected
Automatically select directories as soon as all of their children are selected
Change Ctrl-A behavior so that it only selects entries that match the entered search terms
Deselect entries that become hidden while using the search bar
Fair warning: this makes the issue with not being able to perform the context menu actions "Open" and "Open folder", when multiple entries are selected, just a tiny bit worse for single-file directories, because when you right click the file, the directory gets automatically selected.
When it comes to my opinion on how to fix that, I think it'd be OK to make these context menu entries apply only to the row that was actually right-clicked.
