You don't use keyboard navigation apparently so you're confused.

I first wondered what you meant with "marquee style highlight", but 
after looking at Konqueror it's apparent, it's your keyboard cursor. 
If it wouldn't exist you weren't able to navigate around using a 
keyboard, so the cursor "highlight" and "full highlight" for 
selections obviously can't be merged.

Looking at other systems: the latest Windows versions hide the 
keyboard cursor until the keyboard is first used for navigation. In 
Mac OS X keyboard navigation is by default mostly deactivated and 
needs to be enabled first.

Cheers, Datschge
