Steps: 1. Triple-click "Cell 1". 2. Hold Cmd and triple-click "Cell 2". Expected: The text "Cell 1" and "Cell 2" should both be selected. Result: The text "Cell 2" and table cell 2 are selected. Possible solution #1: Don't clear the text selection when my first Cmd+click lands on the second cell. When it becomes clear that I'm double+ clicking text in the second cell, deselect the table cell. Possible solution #2: Disable the "Cmd+click table cell" easter egg when there is already a non-empty, non-table selection. Possible solution #3: Disable the "Cmd+click table cell" easter egg entirely. See also bug 306641.
