if you have a text area with some text in it, if you click a spot in teh center of the text area and then drag down to select text, when the mouse pointer reaches the edge of the text box, the selection highlight will wrap around as if the mouse pointer was above the first line of the textarea.

I should also note that I have observed this behavior on both QtWebKit and Gtk WebKit.
