Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.fofronline.com/experiments/cube/index.html
2. select several lines of text on the cube

Expected results:
text is selected without any text reflowing

Actual results:
Entire text seems to reflow for every line that is selected

Note that this does not happen in the latest Safari 4 beta
This works fine on Mac, so it seems to be a Windows issue only

This works now when enabling hardware acceleration. Still fails without hardware acceleration.
Summary: Text jumps when selecting text laid out with CSS transformations → Text jumps when selecting text with CSS transformations - works with hardware acceleration enabled
I am having this issue with hardware acceleartion. I think it has to do with exiting the transformed element's bounds and then the selection interacts with its pre-transformed state.
