For example, on Youtube, yesterday Iarrowed to the start of the portion
I wanted to select, pressed F8, went to the end of the selection,
pressed F8, enter and control+c.  In Jart the end point was correct, but
the selection started from the top of the page which I had not visited
at any time as far as I know.
