A common issue people have with selections in WebKit is that they extend to the full page's width. This is especially problematic since using margin:auto is such a common technique for centering multi-column layouts (e.g. http://peter.sh/examples/?/css/flexbox.html). It seems to me that in general we should restrict selections to the border-box (content-box?) of the containing div. Are there cases that would break?
