The Ubiquity API doesn't provide this, but the DOM API that Ubiquity 
uses does. The key is selection.getRangeAt(x) - using different values 
of x. selection.rangeCount has the number of ranges (areas that are 
selected). So, assuming window is the content window:

var selection = window.getSelection();
var selectedTextParts = [];
for (var i  = 0; i < selection.rangeCount; i++) {
   var range = selection.getRangeAt(i);
   selectedTextParts.push(range.toString());
}


See here for more complex uses, like getting the DOM nodes:
