Original description:

We had a launchpad request (https://bugs.launchpad.net/geary/+bug/1170181) for
checkboxes in the conversation list, to make multiple selection easier.

There are a lot of open questions about how the design would look and work
that we'd need to iron out before starting on this.

A agree that Ctrl+Click is becoming less and less known (and isn't intuitive).
Would doing a GNOME 3-style selection mode make sense here? Or would it make
more sense to go Gmail-style and put a check on the left side of each mail?

What's a Gnome 3 style selection mode?

It's a newer bit of their HIG and is showing up in their default apps.

https://live.gnome.org/Design/HIG/SelectionMode

https://live.gnome.org/Design/Apps/Contacts (Ctrl +F for selection mode)

I'm not saying it's a good or bad idea, just mentioning it. ;)
