hello albert, marc, other friends,
i sincerely hope this message has at least a textual copy.
the patch i proposed is successfully bypassing the problem with text selection
for the case the entire page text is being asked (with get_text).
is there a chance my patch would enter git?
the patch is re-attached.
best regards,
alex
