** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
- When you select a whole row or column for copying by clicking on the row
- or column label, the copy range is bounded by marching ant-style
- selection.  This drives Xorg crazy, and top shows Xorg to be using 50%
- or more of CPU.  The user experience is that the whole machine slows
- down, compiz effects get sluggish, etc.  The bug seems to be worse when
- a row rather than a column is selected.  Xorg's CPU load goes back to
- normal after hitting esc, which kills the marching ants.
