Other browsers tested:
  Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
     Safari 5: FAIL
  Firefox 4.x: OK
     IE 7/8/9:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create an InfoWindow in Google Maps that has too much text to fit vertically, causing a vertical scrollbar to be created.
2. Select text near the center of the window.

What is the expected result?
  When selecting text, I would expect the scrolling of the InfoWindow to take place only when the cursor reaches the bottom of the visible text.

What happens instead?
  It starts scrolling prematurely. The problem is amplified when there is more text to go through. This raises problems with other forms of interaction as well (entering text in an input field, etc.). This can be tested on the second url provided above -- just reduce the size of the browser window so scrolling is necessary, and refresh the page.

Note: This also fails on the webkit nightly build (Sept 25th, 2012)
