The GUI for the app has a bunch of imageButton components and I need to allow 
multiple selections by left-clicking whilst holding down the control key. 
Take a look at the first entry on:

Several words spring to mind, all of them Anglo-Saxon/Germanic in origin and 
none of them very polite...I should have engaged brain before posting. You 
are, of course, completely correct - no change is required to the event 
binding line.

The real issue is that my event handling code isn't getting fired. I'd expect 
to see a message printed when I run the app from the command line with the 
following code:

    def on_multiSelect(self, event):
        print 'here we are!'
        if event.controlDown: self.need2Add = 1
