           Summary: shift+click on an existing selection doesn't work
                    right
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML Editing
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ojan at chromium.org


Given the following text:
Here is line one.
This is line two.

1. Select all
2. shift+click after the word "here"
3. shift+click before the word "two"
Expected result: The latter half of line one and the first half of line two
should be selected.
Actual result: The whole first line and the first half of line two are
selected.

The correct Mac behavior is to shrink whichever end of the selection is closest
to where you clicked. Windows/Linux have a different expected behavior (the
extent of the selection should always be moved on shift+click) that is
addressed by bug 25195.
