Thus, people can use C-SPC plus cursor keys even when pc-selection-mode is active, it is only if they use shift-cursor keys to activate the mark will it be deactivated on cursor move. This is (or was) considered a feature I think! Given apparent concern over mouse then keyboard interaction, maybe pc-selection-mode needs to also deactivate the mark when cursor moves after the _mouse_ has set the region...
