Hi,
Take a code snippet like this:
1: 2: if true 3: puts "Hello, world" 4: end 5: 6: puts "Bye" 7:
If I triple-click on line 2, then drag my selection down, I'm unable to make the selection 2-5. I get to 2-4, then as I drag downwards the selection jumps to 2-6.
The converse is not a problem, I can triple-click line 4, then drag upwards and make a selection of 4-1.
Initially I had gotten the idea that this was a regression since TM1, but I've just tested it and it isn't so.
Is there a reason that I can't select that blank line? Currently if I find myself in a position where I need to, I place the caret in line 5, hit Shift-Cmd-L, and up arrow until I have the selection I want.

To select with mouse, move mouse to below the blank line and to the left (so it’s in the gutter).
The reason is simply that it’s fairly complicated to handle this as expected, and as I rarely select text with the mouse myself, this is not a priority for me.
