Script Dialog List View "Full-row Select" property not working

The Full-row Select property is not working for the List View control when i run a Test Dialog (View Mode is "List") in the Script Dialog editor. At first it looks like it's working properly until you increase the control's width in the editor.

Also, if used with the enabled Edit Labels property, text edited at runtime gets visually truncated.

Is the way it behaves in Details mode what you're looking for instead?

List mode always has the items arranged into multiple thin columns (like List mode in Opus), so the most full-row selection could do in List mode is select the width of the column (instead of just the width of name itself). (If it selected the whole row, it would be selecting multiple files if there were enough to need more than one column of names.)

Ah I get it, not a bug for List mode then, but what about Details mode: there is no difference in it whether the Full-row Select is enabled or disabled; in Details mode it's always full row select. Perhaps it's using the global preferences and ignoring the Full-row Select property? (perhaps we could have third option "auto" which would do that instead)

The only difference is in details mode when you have more than one column.

This has "full row select" turned off:

And this has it turned on:
