When I am trying to select the content displayed on the page (including some CSS-generated content (quotation marks)), I find, that it is impossible to select the quotation marks belonging to the blockqoute elements (which are, in fact, generated for the p elements inside them).
The quotation marks can be selected, when using the CTRL+A combination.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit URL.
2. Try to select text with the mouse (or with the caret)
3. Be sad because of the lack of success.
Actual Results:
The quotation marks belonging to the blockquote > p elements won't be selected.
Expected Results:
The quotation marks belonging to the blockquote > p elements should definitely be selected (so that we can copy them out)

The problem is that selection is implemented in terms of DOM ranges and these aren't in the DOM.... :( So fixing this requires a complete rewrite of how selection works.
