I've found that the Select | Move Selected Elements to Other Side
action (Shift+B key shortcut) is broken.  If I select an element,
any element, and hit Shift+B, it is deleted.  This seems to cause
Bad Things later like invalid undo data or something reported in the
message log:

  ERROR: Bad undo serial number 10 in undo stack - expecting 9 or
  lower Please save your work and report this bug.

I have not submitted a bug to Launchpad yet but I will do so if
needed.  Am I using the Shift+B feature correctly?


Steps To Repoduce
-----------------

1. Start pcb with no arguments.

2. Hit 'i', type RESC3216N, click this footprint it and place it somewhere.
   Click Close on the "PCB Library" dialog.

3. Hit Esc to swith to SEL tool. Click the new element to select it.

4. Hit Shift+B.

What is expected: the element should be moved to the solder side, and be displayed as being on the "far side" with faded pad colors.

What actually happened: the element vanishes.


Configuration
-------------

pcb version: git HEAD
