Summary	0000317: Counterintuitive selection behaviour in Edge editing mode
Description	1. Create a brush 2. Enter Edge selection mode with E key. 3. Click on a "corner" edge with the mouse and drag it. 4. Click on a different corner edge and drag it somewhere else. Expected behaviour: The second corner should be selected instead of the first, while the first edge should stay put. Actual behaviour: The first edge remains selected in addition to the second, resulting in them both moving. This is contrary to normal selection behaviour which requires a modifier (usually Shift) to add to a selection.
