Details
Text in a non-foreground window in FizzillaMach/2003021203 is selectable, but
should not be.
1. Open a Mozilla window showing <>
2. Open another Mozilla window
3. Move the mouse cursor over text in the background window; note the cursor
becomes an I-beam
4. Click and drag over said text
Expected results:
The background window should be brought to front and the click+drag otherwise
disregarded. (The cursor should not change over text in background windows.)
Actual results:
Text in the background window is selected and the window is not brought to the
foreground.
Summary: Text in background windows should not be selectable. → Text in background windows should not be selectable

This is mostly fixed after bug 340592. If you click and drag in a background window while the app is active, but we still won't bring the window forward. We don't select text, but we'll try to start a drag, even if there's nothing draggable. We probably want to bring the background window forward unless a real drag is beginning.

This old-timey bug is not reproducible today. The background window is brought to the foreground for text selection.
