Disabling quick groups when using ripple editing

Is there some way to disable the quick groups feature, at least when using ripple editing? In my workflow I have a large file of multiple practice sessions that I review and edit down, often using ripple editing to remove regions. Each time such an edit is made, all the tracks are selected. This is inconvenient because after such an edit a change to any track modifies all of them (unless I remember to click somewhere to unselect them).
