Steps to reproduce:

Double click on a word, then maintain shift and click on another word.


Actual results:

The selection goes from the first word I doubled click to where I clicked the second word.


Expected results:

The selection should include the second word entirely.
Starting a selection by double clicking a word should switch Firefox in some kind of "select entire words" mode.
