Description libing wang CLA 2012-05-25 09:30:18 EDT
Currently if you go to changes section in git commit page and select a row and use right arrow key to expand, the row is expanded with the compare widget.
But if you try to collapse with left key it does not do anything. If you use right arrow key it expand the first row.
The reason is because the change section is not consuming selection service and the previous selection cab not be restored so that the selection model is reset to the first row as selected.

We should either make change section consume selection service(which is not reasonable for now, or, use "cursor only" selection policy.

I will use "cursor only" for now, by which you can still traverse the change section.

Till now, search, replace and git commit pages are using cursor only selection policy.
Git status page is using mixed, where you can't select a compare widget row.

I will open a separate bug for better consumption of selection policies.
