When working with my library in Lightroom CC, adding pictures to albums etc., I notice that it's really cumbersome to deselect images and videos.
Let's say you open an album, and use the Shift key to select a bunch of images and videos. To deselect, you either have to select an image/video that previously was unselected, which will make only that one image or video be selected. Or you have to open a different album. Opening All Photos doesn't help, since Lightroom CC remembers which images/videos that are selected, and these images/videos are necessarily part of the "All Photos" collection.
I'd very much like for Lightroom CC to work like Windows Explorer in this regard: Regardless of which images/videos that are selected, clicking on an image/video will make that image/video selected. Also, I'd like that if the image/video list has focus, pressing Escape would deselect all images/videos.

Here's hoping for more keyboard shortcuts in future versions.

On another note, did you know Ctrl+D is the shortcut for permanently deleting av file in Windows Explorer? Just found out... :-)
