A more comprehensive text

The more conservative approach would be not to change the selection
behaviour but to maintain/re-establish the correct "type in state" after
the click. That is what IE does: The DIV is selected, but typing
continues in the "correct" font, see comment #54. Would you prefer this
approach?

One could argue that clicking 10cm or 4" away from the text to the right
should not select the text. On the other hand, if no <br> follows, then
you can click far to the right and the text is still selected. Also for
text in <p></p> you can click far to the right and still select the
text. Note that links are not followed, even though the text is
selected. That's the last example.

Personally I would fire any web designer who creates websites for one
browser alone and who creates special code for somewhat far-fetched
cases of clicking a text.
