When I selectt some characters in writer and then right-click towards the end 
of the selection, the selection loses its highlight.  It becomes especially 
difficult to format only one letter in a word because of this behavior, 
especially if the user does not know the exact behavior.

For example, to reproduce this bug:
Open writer and type "dog".  Select the whole word with your mouse.  Try to 
right-click on the selection, towards the second half of the letter "g".  The 
word should lose its selection and any formatting will apply to the whole 
word.  If you instead, right-click on the "d" or the "o", there should not be 
any problems.

I've only used openoffice a few times and was surprised that I found this bug 
so soon, so I don't know why other people haven't found this bug.  Maybe it's a 
problem with Java though.
