Description Ryosuke Niwa 2011-05-06 18:01:19 PDT 
On WebKit selectstart fires even when I'm clicking on a contenteditable area for the first time to put a caret.  IE only fires when a selection range is created.

It turned out that this was intended behavior in WebKit. See http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12823. This behavior is explicitly tested by fast/events/selectstart-during-autoscroll.html
