[Bug 368345] [NEW] Intermittant unwanted redaction when selecting text

[MattBlack]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

When selecting text in Firefox, occasionally (1 in 100 times maybe) a
portion of a text will appear as a black box instead of highlighted
black text on orange background. The effect is like CIA black pen
redaction of sensitive documents. If the text is deselected by clicking
and reselected, it will work okay again. It doesn't seem to happen with
any specific sites.

I have firefox 3.0.9. I have recently upgraded automatically to Ubuntu
9.04 and switched to the free ATI drivers. This never happened before I
upgraded. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo R20 laptop with 2 gb memory.

I have tried to replicate for a screenshot but it never seems to happen
when I actually want it to!
