Mmm, my experience in xterms is that when you click to gain focus, or if
you click when the focus is on mouse enter, then the current selection
is lost (as the mouse left click initiate a new selection). This seem to
be the case for both xterm and galeon 1 even without mouse movement
after the left click.

Well, it works well, the \n appears as a small square box. if you enter
it, galeon 1 will even ignore the \n and go for the url. The history
will be messed up though, showing a two (or more) line entry.
