Description
The default nature for selecting multiple things on a MAC is to use Command+Click and not Control+Click. Control+Click is right click by default so it produces the context menu when making multiple selections. It is rather annoying when using this control.

This may be something where the hotkeys plugin (if it actually works across OS and keyboard layouts) could be useful: http://github.com/jeresig/jquery.hotkeys

Selectable already supports cmd+click. Are you asking for us to ignore ctrl+click?

The ticket is 4 years old! I would guess someone added it in at some point since then.

Actually, this existed when you filed the ticket: http://view.jqueryui.com/1.6rc6/demos/selectable/default.html
So are you saying we should just close this ticket? You're not asking for anything to change?

Because we get so many tickets, we often need to return them to the initial reporter for more information. If that person does not reply within 14 days, the ticket will automatically be closed, and that has happened in this case. If you still are interested in pursuing this issue, feel free to add a comment with the requested information and we will be happy to reopen the ticket if it is still valid. Thanks!
