Details

When you click and drag to select text in the URL bar, as soon as you move the mouse outside the bar, it stops drag-selecting; sometimes it seems to start drag-selecting again once you get far enough away (ie into the main browser view), but having to keep the mouse inside the text is a pain.
This is a [4.xP] bug, as NS 4.72 continues to work whereever on the screen you are (even outside the browser window). Let's see what the Event Handling people can do with it - but that's a wild guess. Gerv

I agree that these are duplicates (thanks!), but I'm going to change the resolution so that this is a duplicate of 33948, since it contains substantially more detail that mjudge may want, and which I'll need to verify. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 33948 ***
