I would disagree with you. When I do the steps you describe and look on
screen at the highlighted text, when you shift + down arrow, the
following gets selected all at once:
* item1 (but not the bullet before it)
* The bullet that is before item2
Orca's job is to tell you what is happening on the screen. So not saying
the bullet that comes before item2 would be a bug.
