Marcelo Lyx 1.4 does not support selections that spans half a footnote and something outside it as well. So whenever you select through the boundary of a footnote, you end up selecting the entire footnote inset. The same goes for all other insets, such as tables and boxes. This makes sense, for if you were able to make such a selection, what would happen to cut/copy+paste? Clearly, a cut should not remove the footnote itself if only some of the contents is removed. But how about pasting then? Should that create a new footnote? Or should you only be able to paste such a cut into another footnote? Helge Hafting
