Description

Describe the bug

Take the following example which contains a shared notehead (dotted eigth and dotted quarter notes):

unselected_notes

Selection in MS3

ms3_selected_notes

This selection was created by pressing [Shift] and clicking on the shared notehead (or clicking on the shared notehead, then pressing [Shift]+[up]).

RESULT: Only the chord that is clicked on is selected.

MS4

ms4_selected_notes

This selection was also created by pressing [Shift] and clicking on the shared notehead (or clicking on the shared notehead, then pressing [Shift]+[up]).

RESULT: The selection is extended beyond the original chord.

Expected result

The selection behaviour should be confined to the shared notehead only, as it was in MS3.
