0. emacs -Q
1. C-<SPC>
2. C-p
3. S-<up>
The result is that the first region, set in steps 1+2, is deactivated
in step 3. In other words, step 3 moves the mark to point, and then
moves point up one line.
I expect that step 3 does not move the mark when there is an active region.

If this is what you expect, you want to customize shift-select-mode to
'permanent' (a new value in Emacs 28). The "usual" expectations are
different, because shift-selection is documented to set mark.

Aha, excellent. I see that you already pushed a documentation fix for
this (commit a9052248da42), which looks good to me. Thanks.
I'm therefore closing this bug.
