Another bug:

Highlight a chunk of text with your mouse.  Paste the text with
the middle button.  Now, highlight some new non-overlapping
text.  Result:  The old highlight is not removed before beginning 
the new selection.  Note:  You must not paste into a large wrapping
block of text that has been highlighted, because the highlight 
is correctly removed in that case.
