Just for the recors, I picked shift because assigning functionality to 
both single and double tapping option would mean that the latter 
function would always invoke the first, unless the first one was delayed 
until we could be sure that a second tap wouldn’t follow.

Although I assume that pretty much no-one single-taps option with 
multiple selections, and double-tapping (shift) is currently a no-op for 
when there is only one selection. So currently the key could be changed 
to option.
