Well trying this it does not appear to work, I went to trashy by hitting the down arrow with qn turned off, this in standard view, then hit enter to click it, then down arrow to the table, then shift 8, then a, but there was no link that said x of y are selected. There was a piece of clicable text that I did find and click but then shift 3 and the dialogue did not come up. You did this in safari?
