If the mouse leaves the iframe during text selection, the MouseEvents are no longer sent to Codemirror. If the user lets go of the left mouse button, CodeMirror does not know that the text selection has stopped.
Chrome and Firefox allow to check the states of the mouse buttons on mouse move. Codemirror does this and stops the text selection. This does not work on any version of IE.
Workaround for IE: Check on each left click, if text is currently being selected. If yes, the selection is finished. This is not perfect, but prevents Codemirror from starting a second text selection and going crazy.
