From bug 854070 comment 23,

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; Win64; x64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0
Build ID: 20130806104538
Built from http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/1e381c91885d

Didn't work for me.
Tested on windows 8 using latest nightly  for iteration-11. 

STR
- visit google.com
- enter some text into the search edit
- tap off the edit
- tap at the end of the entered text
(a monocle should appear)
- drag monocle to the left

result: monocle was hidden, no text was selected and sometimes text was selected. See video for more detail: http://youtu.be/kFCfWADvLnA

expected: text must be selected

Looks like bug 858206 is at least one of the reasons for this buggy behavior.
