Another bug in the Solution Explorer window that was reported in the forums some time ago:

BUG: EnvDTE.SelectionEvents.OnChange event does not fire when more than two nodes are already selected in the Solution Explorer of Visual Studio

I reported it to the Microsoft Connect site so you can follow the resolution:

Here you have a bug that can happen navigating programatically the nodes of the Solution Explorer of VS 2005 if you have solution folders and their nodes are not expanded by hand previously:

BUG: EnvDTE.UIHierarchyItems does not work correctly in Visual Studio 2005 if Solution Explorer nodes are not opened previously

I am not sure if Microsoft will consider a bug or a side-effect of the optimizations made in VS 2005 to open the solutions faster, but, for me, it is a bug and I reported it here:

You can vote for it if you consider it a bug too.
