             Bug #: 39965
           Summary: By-word selection fails when mouse moves
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: ContentEditable

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


Word-by-word text selection by mouse fails as soon as the user moves the mouse.

Examples: If a user double clicks on "Lorem" in a "Lorem ipsum" string and then
moves the mouse to, say, after the letter "p", the selected text becomes just
"Lorem ip", rather than the entirety of both words. If a user double clicks on
a word, it becomes entirely highlighted, but if the mouse is moved, the only
parts highlighted are the letters between the beginning of the word and the
cursor.

The expected behavior is that after the user double clicks, the selection
expands/shrinks only word-by-word, with the original selected word always
highlighted.

Tested on Chrome on Windows 7.
