Description:
After using "select all", all elements remain selected, whatever i do. the only way out is to edit a single element twice, then "select all" is undone. This makes "select all" almost unusable.

How to repeat:
Select all, then try to select a single element.

Indeed, selection remains even when you double click/edit individual table. This is a bit inconvenient. 

To "deselect" you can just select one table (or nothing) by gragging with left mouse button pressed.

The old behavior expected a click on the canvas to unselect all.
The behavior was not changed to a more common one, where clicking on an object will deselect everything else.

confirmed changed behaviour working in 5.1.9.

An entry was added to the 5.1.9 changelog:

In Model View after performing Edit, Select, Select All, it was not then possible to undo the operation.
