Thanks for your bug report and helping to make Ubuntu better. The deslection idea is one that would change the default behavior and I have marked this as wishlist to mark that. Please send this upstream to the developers of the software using the steps found at http://wiki.gnome.org/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME.

Hold Ctrl and click the selected contact, to remove the selection. This is Gtk standard behavior, unrelated to Empathy.
