That's also how I understood it (especially based on his prior comment
on another thread).

Or general a sort of "select all". Because if I understand tch's current
design correctly then it requires the user to click and select each
Journal entry, right? Something like Shift + Select like on traditional
systems might be a good addition here.

When was the open-most-recent change implemented? After Sugar 0.82,
right? Since Plan Ceibal is only in the progress of upgrading machines
from 0.82 to 0.88 this could explain why Paolo is still seeing these
issues on an ongoing basis.
