Maybe the textbox could expand when selected... I think the virtue of these supplemental features (e.g., trying to force all of the text in the text area to be highlighted) is pretty dubious. Is there a credible indication that users are incapable of, or have difficulty with, copying text from a text area themselves? Is extra assistance really needed here? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
