There are times when the "specs" on a pair of files is identical, where viewing the files looks identical, but where the physical hash of the files data is not identical, but in the end, to ones (weary) eyes, they're the same.

I guess I'm expecting a selection that had been set to remain set, even if the item that had been selected is no longer there.
So if the results list is selected, it should remain selected even when some action, external or otherwise, causes it to be in a "not selected" state.
