Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Enable caret browsing mode;
  2. Open a pdf with some text;
  3. Enable highlighting tool;
  4. Position the caret on some text;
  5. Press shift and the arrow down, release shift.

What is the expected behavior? (add screenshot)
The text must be highlighted.

What went wrong? (add screenshot)
Nothing is highlighted.

In caret browsing mode, pdf.js is handling the selection itself, which means that no selectstart is triggered.
