I agree, I thought it was just me seeing this behavior. Besides selecting
right to left, I also often just click in the blank space to the left of the
line, and that traditionally selects the entire line. In 2007r2, it doesn't.
You have to very carefully drag your mouse along the entire line, and
without going past the last character - otherwise, the selection is lost.

It's slowed me up considerably, and it's counter to the way text selection
works in every other Mac application. If you'd like to file the bug report,
I'll be happy to sign on to it.
