Whenever you're caught in this bind, try using the arrow keys to scroll or
hitting Ctrl+Home to get to the beginning of the message. Using the
Shift+<arrow keys> is a far more accurate and controllable way to select
text while editing.
Shift+PageDown to select the current page as well as Shift+End to select
the cursors position to the end of the current line of text also provide
nice adjuncts to the arrow keys.

Yes, I see this at times.

Your first problem I do not have since I edit only with the keyboard.
