Also see LPP-4170 - Edittext does not allow mouse to highlight entered
text in dhtml.
Henry, here's how I found these:
$ svn blame LzInputTextSprite.js | grep onselectstart
6826 max document.onselectstart = null;
13912 pbr document.onselectstart =
LzTextSprite.prototype.__cancelhandler;
7295 max document.onselectstart =
LzTextSprite.prototype.__cancelhandler;
Of course that only shows the most recent change for those lines - I
searched my checkin history and it looks like the original change was
from r1035(!):

document.ondrag = LzTextSprite.prototype.__cancelhandler;
What was the need for that? Why wasn't it sufficient to rely on the
LzTextSprite.setSelectable behavior
(which sets this.__LZdiv.onselectstart =
LzTextSprite.prototype.__cancelhandler )? Or was this
to fix some other issue besides toggling (input) text selectability?
