Thanks for the report. This looks expected from the present code.
Extend range (shift + LMB) property for outliner selection only extends selection from the active element to the cursor position.
TSE_ACTIVE flag is not set for the last selected element so active selection is not changed here.
Feature added in rBfdcae9ed0c78: Outliner: Add range extend select and modify keymap
Forwarding this report to developers because expected behavior is not mentioned (at least I could not find anywhere)
