Select all in browse mode does not work as expected

[tmthywynn8]

I don't know if this is a regression or it took me this long to notice, but selecting all text with CTRL+A in browse mode results in unexpected behaviors in certain cases. Steps to reproduce:

1. Enter browse mode with NVDA+Space.
2. Go to the top of the page with CTRL+Home.
3. Press the right-arrow once.
4. Press CTRL+A.

Expected: You should hear "X characters selected," where X is the number of characters.

Actual results: You here "S selected," because NVDA is selecting up to where your cursor is, i.e., the second character of the "Skip to content" in-page link.

hi.
i observed this unexpected behaviour in nvda 2017.1
but i am not sure that its a regression in nvda, firefox or both.
for example: i tested with firefox 22 and i confirm this bug in version 22 too.
could you please test it with previous versions of nvda to see the result?
control+a is a windows keyboard and i cant believe that causes this key not working properly.
please test with different versions of nvda.
thanks so much and God bless you all.
