https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119622

           Summary: Not possible to clear the selection when mixing
                    content from different FlowThreads
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jfernandez at igalia.com


This bug was hidden by the fix for the bug 105641, which basically prevented the selection to be rendered when crossing the FlowThread boundaries. 

Such fix is not correct, because instead of fixing the actual bug it adds restrictions on how the selection works with Regions.

We need to properly fix the selection clearing operation, allowing selections to cross RenderFlow boundaries and select content from different Regions.
