Screen Recording

I'm not sure when this regressed, but WebKit no longer matches the system when it comes to extending the text selection after using a non-character selection granularity.

Steps:
1) Double click a word in a paragraph.
2) Shift click another word in the middle of the word that is before or after the selection.

Results:
The selection is extended to the new word, but is mid-word not the whole world.

Expected:
The selection is extended to the new word, and the whole word is selected.

(The same applies to line/paragraph granularity with triple-click.)
