Bug description:
I've experienced this bug on every computer that I've installed ubuntu
on, I don't know whether it is specific to trackpads or not.
Basically, when I read webpages, I will often highlight my way down
the page. And I will frequently discover that this highlighting and
clicking will copy text which is then pasted when I click on an input
box--such as the google toolbar or an open office document. I
recognize that this is probably a feature, but it should be disabled
by default. It was the only complaint I've received about usability
from the average computer users I've introduced to ubuntu
