I guess people can get confused which selection is copied to the clipboard for example if there are selected several parts (supposing dumbest user). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.select text in one frame 2.select text in other frame Actual Results: in both frames selections exist Expected Results: perhaps only one selection per webpage/browser window This is no bug but rather a design question and just a proposal if its not better to change this behaviour.

The only text that gets copied is the text with the focused selection highlight. The others turn gray when the frame loses focus. This behaves as expected. See also bug 36848 and maybe bug 144333.
