Overview Description:
Using Safari/Webkit on Mac OS X 10.5, when one double clicks in a word that contains the soft-hyphenation mark (­), the whole word is not selected, instead only the text until the soft-hyphen is selected.
The fact a word contains such marks should not affect the GUI behaviour. Safari's behaviour is inconsistent with other Mac OS X applications like TextEdit.app. If the text is copy-pasted into TextEdit.app, the soft-hyphens are still recognised, but double-clicking anywhere selects the whole word.
Steps to reproduce
1) Open http://thias.absyrde.net/share/shy_bug.html in Safari
2) Double click on the 'r' of procrastinate
Expected result: The whole word (procrastinate) selected.
Actual Results: Only the first syllable (until the first ­ mark) is selected.
Build Date & Platform: This bug is present in build r35177

There were a lot of fixes made to soft hyphen handling in nightlies, but this bug still remains.
Mathias Nater
This seems to be fixed.
