Title:
  Cannot select text reliably with the mouse in OpenOffice Writer

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When in LibreOffice Writer, text selection with the mouse will
  sometimes work, sometimes not and is generally unreliable.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open a Writer document in OpenOffice,
  2. Press the left mouse on a piece of text and keep pressed,
  3. Start dragging the mouse to select a piece of text.

  Expected behaviour:
  The selected text is highlighted until you release the mouse button.

  Actual behaviour:
  More often than not, the text will stop being highlighted sometime during the 
drag, often when the drag goes over a word boundary but not always.
