Description

Describe the new feature

If a complete row is selected then the keys down/up/page down/page up/Home/End should set the selection to the appropriate row. Together with Shift the number of selected rows should be increased.
In the moment the selection is set to a single cell.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the table's row-selection and cursor-key handling, then verify that Up, Down, Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End move a complete-row selection and that Shift extends the selected range rather than reducing it to one cell.
