This seems like a bug to me, because it denies us the expressive potential of
the selection. We can choose to select a 3x5 region covering the merged cell;
and we can (try to) select 1x5 region, in one of 3 ways (left, middle, right).
Why should all four user behaviors result in the same thing, while almost no
mouse-down selection behavior can produce a selection of
a1,a2,a3,merged-a4-through-c4,a5 ?

As for Excel compatibility... perhaps a toggle for our compatibility options in
Tools > Options?
