Consider your email client. Most display messages in browse mode and compose in an edit box or an equivalent in this case. Therefore, selecting and copying text in a message you're reading and one you're writing involve two completely different methods in two windows of the same program. So now we have to select one way on the net, in CHM files, and in email messages, and another everywhere else on our system.

I've been playing with selecting text in I E, and I just can't see why so
many think it's more difficult than before.  I selected one line and I
selected many lines.  I guess selecting one line is two keystrokes and with
the new method it's three.  After one line that difference goes away.  If
it's possible to also include the previous method of selecting, that would
be good.  I'm kind of amazed how much folks want to hang on to old ways of
doing things.  This seems like a problem, when just about everything to do
with computers is going to change and require doing things in a new way.
