We don’t seem to have a concept for unhanging selections w.r.t inlines/texts it seems. Introducing this as was suggested here would solve this I think.

Another way might be to unify the “double-click to select” behavior across browsers so that the resulting selection is not hanging (is this something we can hook into?)

@matobiely I didn’t close/reject your report because it is an issue. 😂 … just added notes to help clarify/track it down. Edges/boundaries are one of the things that is challenging to get right across platforms. For example, see the discussion in #4522 or #4588.
