Does this only affect nightly, still? Or is it broken on release as well?

Flags: needinfo?(bugs)

The page is using Shadow DOM, and we have different selection handling than Chrome.
Selection handling in Shadow DOM isn't specified anywhere, but we're planning to change our behavior.

Too late for a fix in 70 but as we're seeing some duplicates, could you take another look and maybe aim for a fix in 72? Or is this part of some bigger project?

Flags: needinfo?(bugs)

Implementing different Selection handling when Shadow DOM is enabled is a massive task, and that work is ongoing.
(Selection handling with Shadow DOM isn't really specified)

OK. Thanks. Sounds like I should take this off the regression triage query, then, and just leave it to your team.
