Comment #5 on issue 9762 by [email protected]: Regression:  
Shift+Ctrl+Arrow selection combination also changes text direction in RTL  
UIs
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9762

Steps to reproduce:
* Open Chrome using an RTL UI
* Type 'abc' into the find textbox in a New Tab page.
* Select the letter 'b' using the mouse.
* Press the LEFT cntrl+shift keys and left arrow key.

Expected results:
* The selection should be extended but the alignment of the text field  
should NOT be changed.

Actual results:
* The selection is modified correctly but the text alignment is changed so  
the textbox is left aligned.

Discussion:
This regression is the result of the fix for http://crbug.com/1845

The original fix to get cntrl-shift to change the text alignment needs to  
take the case of using arrow
keys/home/end
to extend the selection into account.

If the selection is extended then the alignment of the text box should not  
be changed.

As mentioned in the comments for http://crbug.com/1845 , IE7 also has bugs  
in this area.

In the OS X version of the code this situation doesn't come up since text  
alignment is changed using a
contextual
