            Bug ID: 66802
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: [bug] editor client cannot select text with
                    shift+arrow key
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: brian.j.lovin at intel.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: weston
           Product: Wayland

System Environment:
--------------------------
Distro: Fedora 17
Arch: x86_64
wayland (HEAD) 1.1.91-0-g3f3671e
fontconfig (master) heads/master-0-gcbf06d7
drm (HEAD) libdrm-2.4.45-0-g63aeae1
mesa (9.1) heads/9.1-0-g26f802d
libxkbcommon (HEAD) xkbcommon-0.3.0-0-g27a1176
pixman (HEAD) pixman-0.30.0-0-g41daf50
cairo (HEAD) 1.12.14-0-g0dac37c
weston (HEAD) 1.1.91-0-g46cb4a9

Detailed Description:
-----------------------------
Place cursor somewhere on the text in the `Entry` textbox and on the hardware
keyboard, press Shift+<Arrow Key>. This should select text but does not.

Additionally, pressing Ctrl+<key> or Alt+<key> on the hardware keyboard will
continue to print <key>

Steps to Reproduce:
----------------------------
1. start weston under X11 or DRM mode
2. ./editor
3. Place cursor within the text in the `Editor` box
4. Press Shift+<Arrow Key> on the hardware keyboard to attempt to select some
text
5. Observe that no text is selected.
6. Press Ctrl or Alt+key and observe that <key> is still printed.

These aren't huge issues, but are inconsistent with how other applications
behave.
