in native iphone table views the row selection stays highlighted the entire time while a window is opening. In titanium, the highlight starts to fade a bit. it's subtle but there is a difference

Some light is shed on why this might be happening by the first answer in this thread:

Ever wondered what UITableViewController really does?
- In viewWillAppear, it deselects any selected rows, with animated:YES.
This by the way is why when you navigate back in UINavigationController, the row you've previously touched is nicely deselected with animation. When you pushed a new view controller onto UINavigationController, you've left the row selected. When you pop it and go back to the table view, viewWillAppear fires and deselects the row. UINavigationController does not even know about this happening.
As far as I can tell, Titanium doesn't reproduce this aspect of UINavigationController (leaving rows selected) and UITableViewController (deselecting rows).
