[Bug 419791] Re: Keyboard navigation is not possible

I'm sorry I didn't get around to specifying keyboard navigation for the
various package list views until last Monday, and that involved a change
in the way clicking
behaves.<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareStore#Package%20list%20view>

The relevant part: "By default, none of the rows in a package list view
should be selected. If the view allows selection, clicking anywhere in
an item should select that row, and Ctrl+clicking on a selected item
should deselect it. If no item is selected, pressing the Down arrow key
should select the first row, and conversely pressing the Up arrow key
should select the last row. If the view does not allow selection, the
arrow keys should scroll the view without highlighting rows. If the view
is defined as having navigation buttons, then when – and only when – an
item is selected, it should have a button at its trailing end with an
arrow icon. The button should have the usual appearance of a default
button, and pressing Enter should activate it. Double-clicking anywhere
in the row should do the same as activating the navigation button,
regardless of whether the row was previously selected."

As defined, all current search results screens, the list sub-pane of
each department screen, and the top-level "Installed Software" screen,
should use a package list view that allows selection and has navigation
buttons. The "In Progress" screen should use a package list view with
progress bars and cancel buttons. And the "these items must be removed
as well" alert should use a package list view that does not allow
selection.
