Well, that doesn't quite fix it. The highlight still goes away when you
touch anything -- like the the Ctrl key. And still only the first text
copied with Ctrl-C sticks. Any attempt to copy anything after that fails --
only the first-copied text is in the buffer -- until I close and reopen the
stack. Then I can still only do just one copy with the newly opened stack.
Same on Windows and Linux.
Workaround - change to edit mode, with lockText off. But I don't want to
give that open to "read-only" viewers, and it's an extra two-step -- off and
then on again after copying -- for "read and write" users.
