reduction

Open the attachment and follow the instructions.
You should be able to see the results as seen in the screenshot.

To reproduce reliably, try to drag from the center of the N letter to the left
You can also drag from the center of the g letter (right before that N) to the right but that selection has to be shorter.

This bug seems to only reproduce on non-editable region.
Comment 3 Ryosuke Niwa 2010-10-01 17:12:50 PDT 
Also note that the copied text is " " so it's clearly rendering issue (i.e. selection positions are correct).  Whoever writes a patch for this bug should ignore my comment in the demo to include dump-as-markup.js since this bug clearly requires pixel by pixel comparison of the rendered result.

I can't reproduce this using r139950.
Comment 5 Ryosuke Niwa 2013-01-28 12:19:16 PST 
Same here.
