Ok now that I have understood the meaning of modes and status bar messages, we
can argue this out. :)

Very simply put, Impress tries to ride two horses: It shows multiple objects
selected, but edits the text in the last selected object.

Why does it then show the multiple object selection? What can I do with it?

Impress can do any one of the following:
1. Selct both objects; and leabve the text edit mode)
2. Drop the first object, select the second object and remain in text edit mode.
3. Produce an error ("Since I am in text edit mode, pressing SHFT+click is not
acceptable") and remain with the text edit mode in object#1. 

But it does not do any of them!

That is how PowerPoint behaves; and it is very convenient: The quickedit feature
lets me edit text with a single click, but I can also start selecting multiple
objects without PowerPoint getting in my way. That's a smart way of handling
objects.
