Also you need to know for sure if browse mode is on or off and since in the 
email client you are not notified of when it's turned on it's even more 
difficult.

Subject: Re: Selecting text

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.
