When the user double-clicks and drags across some text, it should continue to
select only whole words.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Double-click on some text, and hold the button down
2. Drag the mouse across the adjoining text

Actual Results:  
The initial double-click selects a word, but dragging the mouse selects by
character.

Expected Results:  
Since the drag started with a double-click, only whole words should be selected.
Ooh, a classic...
