Similar to or same as Bug 4096971. This was fixed in Swing 1.1,
but is broken again in Swing 1.1.1 Beta 2 (and maybe Beta 1).
Please do not close this bug as a duplicate of the fixed bug. It
is broken again, and the current behavior is totally unacceptable
and non-standard. After selecting text in a JTextArea, then
using the right mouse to popup a menu, or the left mouse to
access an application menu, the selection is lost! (At least
visually.) Generally a user makes a selection in order to do
something with the selected text, but now that selection goes
away! This makes us, the developers who support Sun and Java,
look bad when our apps don't work as expected. Our users don't
really want to hear "it's the language's fault!" Please fix this
before 1.1.1 Final is released!

If I have 2 jInternalFrames each with a jTextArea. When I call select the data is highlighted like I expect. If I call select on the other jTextArea, the data is highlighted but the previous highlight disappears. I have tried to capture the paint method and re"select" the text but I get into an infinite paint loop.
