I agree with every single thing in here.
select(multiple) need to have checkboxes and marking a row should be as simple as just pressing spacebar (without holding down extra modifier key, the angular material UI is so much better
the select(multiple) is so bad that no website use it today. I would like to see it making a comeback and rework the hole select(multiple)

Recommendation Present
<select multiple>
as a set of checkboxes like JS widget libraries tend to do.
Is this a recommendation to change the existing <select>
element or to add a feature to the new <selectmenu>
element? If it's for selectmenu then this issue should probably be merged into https://github.com/openui/open-ui/issues/447 right?
I find the use of checkboxes a bit weird as these imply tab navigation while actually they will be navigated with arrow keys. On the other hand, checkboxes are best to imply multi-selection. Neil Osman Accessibility engineer @ accessibility team

I think when the are arranged vertically and inside a box that looks like a listbox, it's more apparent. Especially of the focused item is styled with a different background color. It looks like a listbox then, that happens to have checkboxes.

understood that it might not be how people initially think of interacting with checkboxes, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered. see also https://github.com/openui/open-ui/issues/487
i quite like the idea of moving over to that sort of model, and I know it'd help a lot of inconsistent UX I've seen in large lists of checkboxes which either don't do anything to help facilitate quicker navigation (e.g., tab key navigates through them all) or arrow keys are implemented for navigating, but there's no programmatic or visible way to know this without guess and check interaction.
Select multiple was moved to v2 here, so I'm changing the labels: https://github.com/openui/open-ui/issues/531#issuecomment-1145170806

I think that we are definitely going to use checkboxes for multi select
Problem
The
<select multiple>
built into HTML is difficult to use, both for AT (assistive technology) and non-AT users. The reasons for its current design are historical and date back to when the web was copying native Windows widgets from the 90s. There are very good reasons why most websites avoid<select multiple>
, and prefer to use a JS-based widget that presents them as a list of checkboxes instead. Let’s move forward with a modern design.Recommendation
Present
<select multiple>
as a set of checkboxes like JS widget libraries tend to do.The Material List widget provides a good demonstration of this could work, see https://material.angular.io/components/list/overview#selection-lists Standalone version: https://gxlepjxpdpr.angular.stackblitz.io
What about multiselect comboboxes?
Aka
<select size=”1” multiple>
These currently don’t work in native HTML and must be implemented in JS. While we’re at it, let’s also enable these in browsers. A list of checkboxes works very nicely in a dropdown.
