Select cells and click button to display number of events

Hello,

A SelectionChanged event seems to be triggered several times at a single
modification of cell selection in Calc. It even occurs four times (on my
system) when I click on an already selected cell!!!

Here is a sample Calc file with macros:
***************************************
Global count As Integer

Sub SelectionChanged(evt)
     count = count+1
     SelectionChanged=true
End Sub

Sub Display
     Print count
     count = 0
End Sub
***************************************

count is incremented each time SelectionChanged is executed (on a
SelectionChanged event in sheet 1).

Display is called by button on the same sheet and shows current value of count,
then resets it for further trials.

Now, select any cell or cell range (using mouse or keyboard) then click on the
button; strange isn't it?

If not wrong, I'd expect no event at all when the selection is not changed, and
just one when changed.

Badly needing that feature, I use this workaround:
***************************************
Global ref As String

Sub SelectionChanged(evt)
     If evt.absoluteName = ref then Exit Sub
     ref = evt.absoluteName
     'commands............
End Sub
***************************************
(supposing one will only select cells or cell ranges)
