Strong selection is in list/tree/table presentations associated with double
clicking on an element. So it's a "stronger" selection than just clicking
once.

There is no connection between #strongSelection and #rawSelection ports.
Only between #selection and #rawSelection.
#rawSelection will hold the exact value that was selected. Before putting
this value in the #selection port a transformation
can be applied on it using GLMBasicPresentation>>#send:. Have a look for
example at Date>>gtInspectorDetailsIn:. The table
displays a list of associations, but on selection we want to navigate to
the value in that association. #rawSelection will hold the
association and #selection the value in that association.
