Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
Please view the attached file and "toy" with selections by mouse. Notice
the CSS :before style.
Expected result: consistent behavior of the b's: either always ignore or
always select.
Actual result:
1. When I drag the mouse slowly, the b's are not selected.
2. When I drag fast, in some arbitrary lines the b's appear selected.
3. When I select a range by: mouse-click (and release); press shift; press
keyboard arrows - the b's are not selected.
4. When I select a range by: mouse-click (and release); press shift;
mouse-click somewhere else - the b's in the range appear selected.
5. When a selection is active, removing the focus from the Firefox window makes
the b's within the range appear selected.
However, copying and pasting show that *in all the cases* the b's were
not selected.
Note: also happens in Firefox 3.6.8
