I'd be happy to mentor this, though it might be a little tricky to debug if it's device-specific.

The first step might be trying to narrow down what is affected: tablets running 4.2, just the one device, possibly other tablets?

Flaviu, do other tablet-mode settings on this device show the highlighting problem? What about other 4.2 tablets (Firefox, as well as other settings)?

Softvision team does not have any other 4.2 tablet.
The bug is also reproducible using Gmail app and Youtube app.
Looks like the bug is device specific.

No longer reproducible after updating the tablet OS to Android 4.4.2. 
Closing the bug as worksforme.
