Tested on: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041128
Firefox/1.0 (Debian package 1.0-4)

as well as the latest 1.0rc2.

When you click "view source" the actual html code is displayed, and all entities
are still expanded (ie.  ).  When you highlight the text and click "View
selection source", the entities are rendered as the character they represent. 
An example page is here:

Expected behavior: Display the source in "View Selection Source" as actual html
entities and not converted characters.
