             Summary: Improve terminal selection behavior
                 Key: GUACAMOLE-2117
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2117
             Project: Guacamole
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Stephen Schiffli


The current selection behavior will select a character if the mouse drags even 
one pixel. This is much more sensitive that typical implementations and can 
result in inadvertently selecting a single character when simply clicking on 
the screen, wiping out the clipboard contents.  Also, you can typically drag 
back to the starting point to effectively cancel a selection.

Most terminal emulators require dragging from the one half of the character to 
the other to actually select it, which could be implemented here too to reduce 
initial sensitivity.  In addition, dragging back to the anywhere within the 
half of the character you started dragging will cancel the selection and thus 
not change the clipboard contents.
