Description _ tboudreau 2005-06-29 16:24:37 UTC 
In recent builds, if you select text, clicking that text will not deselect it.  It's quite maddening.

I'm guessing this is because of the new text-dragging feature.  It should deselect on mouse-released if 
a drag is not performed - that is how other text editors handle it.
