Accidentally clicking next to the checkbox breaks issue selection

Updated over 5 years ago.
Description
Expected behavior would be that issues don't get unchecked when clicking outside checkbox, and that clicked issue gets added to selection

Sorry its primary click. Some people swap buttons...
I think the current behavior is natural. You can select multiple issues if you click issues while pressing Control/Command key.
Fore example, gmail is not behaving the way Redmine is. Gmail captures click anywhere on checkboxes parent TD element, here is screen capture...

Perhaps it should be left to per-theme setting...
I wrote a patch to make the range up to the parent TD element of the checkbox a clickable range.
It is difficult to click without mistaking a small checkbox.
This small change should impxrove usability.
