IE8 IE9: Selection Defect with contentEditable = "false" and unselectable = "on"

[Jakub Ś]

This issue was reported on our support channel (Topic: selection defect)

1. Download and copy defect.html to samples folder
2. Open editor and select "[This is div one and it simulates]"
3. Right-click outside selection but in the same line E.g. area wher^e
4. Repeat step three. this time click in are^a where

Result: In both cases selection disappears. It shows on a moment on right-click and than disappears. To be more specific selection stays but the blue background disappears.

5. Additionally in IE9. Left-click out side of editor. Text will look like it is unselected. Now move the cursor on the part of text that "was selected", grab it with left-click and try to move it in the same line.

Result: It is possible to move the text because it's selection had stayed.

Issue has been reproducible in IE8 and IE9 from CKEditor 3.2.1

Shows that without editor logic there is no problem with selection

The simple.html sample is using a single document. It would be better to verify that this is a CKEditor issue to test with an editable iframe.
