About selection of files/directory, a key to "snapshot" the selection will be nice because we could move them to up or down too and don't change the selection... This is impossible for the moment... (CTRL key for example to snapshot the selection)

You can do this already, just use the Toolbar buttons to Copy/Cut/Insert the selected files!

Yes, i could use hotkeys too, but here i speak about the problem of selection of files/drawers for the drag'n drop feature. Some programs use only drag'n drop feature to receive files/drawers informations.

I thought you want to move selected files/dirs to another dir which is "higher" in the directory tree in the same lister.

If you just want to drag the selected files to another Lister or app then just click near the window's left/right edge to select a file/dir.
No problem for me.
Maybe your mouse pointer is too accelerated?

I'll be looking at List.mui's multiselection improvements for 3.20...
