matrixxx-dev created an issue (geany/geany#4244)

I would like to address a problem that has already been dealt with:
"PRIMARY selection should be stable #2323"

The 'normal' behavior of the PRIMARY selection in Linux (middle mouse button) 
is that it remains until a new selection is made.
That is also my opinion.

Some editors respect this behavior.
For example, Mousepad, Bluefish, CodeLite, SciTE, and a few more ...
Therefore, it should be noted that SciTE is a reference implementation of 
Scintilla.
CodeLite use Scintilla too.

In Geany, after making a selection, a left mouse click anywhere in the editor 
(without a selection) of the same document deletes the PRIMARY selection. You 
can no longer paste it.

However, none of the aforementioned editors exhibit this behavior.
Also SciTE. So I do not belief the behavior comes from Scintilla.
That's why I think I can't post a feature request on Scintilla.

And So it could be that it has something to do with Geany.
And i do not belief the behavior is normal X11 operation.
Otherwise, the other editors will do something wrong.

I would now ask you to please consider this once more. Thank you.
