I'm not sure that it is truly a bug. I agree that the logic you
presented in an earlier message is better. However, think about what
TB is doing. You are telling TB to generate a reply quoting the
selected text. But you never limited where that selected block could
be located.
However, I have noticed a bug for a long time that affects the
behaviour here. When reading a folder with the message list pane in
focus and a new message comes in, it too will be highlighted. This
makes it easy to have multiple selected messages when you hit Reply.
