Try the code I posted yesterday (in this same thread, but with the
Subject: line changed to "deactivation in "shift-select" mode").

It does a good job of implementing the desired shift-select
functionality, with _extremely_ simple code.

I think something similar would be a great basis for implementing this
feature for default emacs use -- it's very simple and does exactly
what's wanted for the typical user.
