Just in case your are not familiar with MoinMoin, if your are logged in
and click Edit, you will find some markup examples and links to
documentation below the text entry.

Basically: treat other's contributions with respect and be thoughtful 
about your own.

You should not change the meaning of what other's wrote or delete stuff,
unless you are very sure what you are doing.

This can become a balance act between not forcing your point of view and
avoiding a mess.

What could we learn from users scenarios here and what might those
scenarios be?

We already have established problems users might have due to a lack of
training with the mouse, limited motor skill or RSI.

This is about very basic and quick operations, so there likely isn't
that much to explore. Maybe list cases where a user would want to select
multiple files? Continuous vs random selections. Can you think of cases
where differing needs would arise?
