Well, I'm still a little confused.  Because when I select a few words, or a 
paragraph, or whatever, I do it quite purposefully and Jaws tends to confirm 
what's selected and what's left unselected, and so forth, so that I never am 
unsure what's going on.  Is there some kind of situation I'm neglecting to 
think of, where a person might lose track of what they'd selected?

Hi,

Yes, that's what we're referring to.  Personally speaking, it's not a
function I'd use all that much but there are instances where it would come
in handy.
