bogus selection after undoing and redoing a cut operation

[Teo]

Steps to reproduce:

- open gedit
- write the text: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
- select the portion from "e" to "i" included (5 characters)
- cut it e.g. by using ctrl+x => no text is selected now (ok)
- undo with ctrl+z => the un-cutted text is selected now (ok)
- redo with ctrl+shift+z

Expected: after re-doing, no character should be selected

Observed: => after redoing, the characters "jklmn" are selected, which are the one that occupy the positions previously occupied by the selected text.
