I think there are certainly situations where you want to have some text that responds to pointer events but not by performing selection. The usual way people solve this is to set pointer-events="none" on the text element and place an invisible rectangle above/below it to capture the mouse events. This isn’t ideal because you do not always know how big the text will be, depending on font fallback and so on. -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
