So if there are no Modified files shown, does that mean the "Modified"
selection pattern should be grayed out? The same applies to "Added" or
"Deleted" (If those exist).
The point is, this feature is not designed to be dynamic, at least as far as
GMail is concerned. In GMail, the option to select all Unread items is still
there even if there are no unread items in your view. The option does
exactly what it says it does... it will select all Unversioned files, and
"none" is considered "all" if there are no unversioned files shown.
I think the feature is perfect as-is and graying the options out would only
confuse the feature (and the user) and make it less intuitive.
