Shift-clicking in Layers doesn't select range if filter is used
I have dozens if not hundreds of elements I need to select in a document. I can get them into a contiguous list in the Layers panel with a filter, but this breaks range-selection.
Screen grab attached, showing clicking behavior with the Shift key held down, with and without a filter in effect.

It's mind-boggling that this remains broken. The layer list is useless for many tasks now.
Range selection in the layer list is usually broken even if a filter is NOT used, by the way. Utterly defective.

Confirm. It’s possible when we target objects within a continuous range in this filtered view, but not across ranges.
