Bug Description

To reproduce:

- Open new libreoffice document
- Type 1234567890
- With your mouse, slowly highlight the text from left to right (or vice versa)
- The text will unselect mid way

I have found that if selecting text area quickly, then it works. It's almost like it's on a timer of about 1 second, if you haven't selected the text in that time it seems to unselect.
