--- Comment #1 from Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> ---
I know this might seem weird at first, but this is intentional. You see, the
highlight is meant to signify what your next click on that area will interact
with. When less than two items are selected, the highlight is there because a
click in that row will act on the item in that row. However, when two or more
items are selected, there won't be a highlight, because the next click on the
row will clear the selection instead of acting on the item.

I'd have to dig up all the details, but one of the reasons we implemented this
behaviour was to give users an easy way to clear their selection if they do
want to do that.

I personally would want the highlight to never appear if any item is selected
at all, but this wasn't done yet because Dolphin currently sometimes highlights
singular files "by itself" when navigating through the file system. See
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424723 for details.
