Shift-DownArrow selects dash on next list item

Steps to reproduce

  1. Make a list of two items
  2. Position cursor at the far left of the first list item
  3. Use Shift-DownArrow to select the first list item (as if you were going to delete that item from the list)

Thanks. It just occurred to me to check the other direction (Shift-UpArrow), and it selects everything on the previous line, except the hyphen/asterisk. So, both ways, the cursor and the edge of the selection ends up one character too far to the right.
