Dmitry, I think you are misunderstanding the issue. The bug report is about
"Open file" dialog in Newsleecher. I don't have that installed so I tried 3
random programs that I recently installed on WindowXP and in wine. The three
are:
Newsbin Pro 5.5;
Lotus WordPro R9;
Microsoft VisualStudio 6.0.
All three of these program allow multiple files to select in the open file
dialog (with ctrl key) and all respond (selecting all files) to ctrl+A in winXP
but not under wine. As I read it, this is exactly what the bug reporter
describes. 

Notepad on the other hand allows only a single file to be selected ( it only
allows one document to be edited at the same time, so that make sense). It does
not react to selecting with the ctrl key and does not react to ctrl+A. I think
it is a bad choice of program to assess the validity of this bug report.

My guess is that ctrl+A should become active when the flag OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT
is used in the GetOpenFileName call.
