2437	mcedit text selection length doesn't change when text is deleted	jimklimov	angel_il	"When some text is selected in MCEDIT (via ESC+3 and arrow keys and selection is fixed by pressing ESC+3 again), and then some of the selection text is removed by backspace key only, and then the text is subsequently saved (ESC+2), the end of selection ""moves forward"" by the amount of characters removed by backspace.

This is best seen when several whole lines are initially selected, and some characters are removed in the middle of selection. After saving the file, end of selection becomes a few characters into the next line after old end of selection.

This does not happen when selection characters removed by DEL or Ctrl+D keys, nor when whole lines are removed by Ctrl+Y.

This does not happen when characters are added inside the selection.

This does happen when some characters are backspaced away and the same amount of characters is typed inside the selection.

Occurence by versions:
* tested positive in 4.7.4, 4.7.0.10; 
* tested negative in old 4.6.1"	defect	closed	minor	4.7.5	mcedit	4.7.4	fixed		gotar@…				commited-master
