Simply select some non-adjacent cells in arbitrary cols and rows.

The implementation did not meet the primary requirement, so I objected
clearly and early. You decided to commit an half-brewn "enhancement"
based on a technique that was known not to meet the TODO, i.e. doing it
with a virtual control. You can't be too surprised I basically rolled
back that beast, to have the first step made before the second.
The reporting stuff is going to frustrate you and me as well. I tried to
fix at least the menuing stuff, but had to retract, realizing that you
kind-of reinvented the most ugly interaction between the MNU_
enumeration and schema objects acting on that I removed months ago. This
basically means that it can't be refactored partially, but essentially
needs rewrite. The current implementation style is that of pgAdmin 0.1
to 1.2, which was becoming more and more painful when adding new
features. I'm less than inclined to accept having this creeping back in.
