In case a text selection happen to partially cover a word, you notice something
wierd: Bordering glyphs (i.e the one inside the selection and the one outside)
are shown disjoind.
For example, take the word "Sina". It is composed of the following glyphs in
logical order: Alef final + Noon medial + Yeh medial + Seen initial
Now suppose you highlight the first two glyphs in visual order (i.e Seen and
Yeh), then the sequence above is incorrectly shown as:
Alef final + Noon initial + Yeh final + Seen initial
where the sequence should have been remained intact.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
described above. 
It can also be compared on the same portion of a Farsi/Arabic text in both IE
and Mozilla. IE exhibits the correct behavior ;)
