When Ive been adding plugins as dependencies, as the list is populating (due to the large list of plugins installed on the machine), I find the plugin I want in the top 3 and select OK (not DOUBLE click). What happens is that the dialog fill completes and the first item in the list is auto-selected, consequently, my selection is ignored. I must have done this a dozen times before twigging what was going on. This selection problem seems to happen on other similar dialogs as well. The workaround is to remember to double click! A better solution would be for dialog NOT to select the first one in the list at the end of loading IF a selection has already been made.
This is an old general problem with populating ElementListSelectionDialog. Although, I have not encountered it recently, so it could have gotten fixed. Moving to the Platform/UI bucket to resolve as appropriate.
Tod, this isn't a jface dlg and you're the only person on the history chain that I know...

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
