If you double click text and your pointer happens to move between the last
mousedown and mouseup, then you'll end up only selecting the text from the
beginning of the word to your pointer's location. This is caused by the "click,
click-and-drag" behavior.
Mozilla should probably have a couple of pixel's tolerance when detecting
doubleclicks (*or* when deciding to generate a "drag" event).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Very quickly: mousedown, mouseup, mousedown, move pointer slightly, mouseup.
Easiest using a pointing device that's not very stable (it moves slightly when
pressing a button), or perhaps a touchpad. I'm using a tablet and stylus.
Actual Results: Only the part of the word left of the pointer is selected.
Expected Results: All of word selected.
