Title:
  [evolution/wip/webkit2] EHTMLEditorView - Restore the selection end
  mark correctly when processing HTML to plain text

Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in evolution source package in Xenial:
  In Progress
Status in evolution source package in Artful:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact] 
  Ubuntu 16.04 evolution users sometimes send emails with ###SELECTION_END### due to a copy/paste error in the EHTMLEditorView code when converting HTML to plain text.

  This is fixed in newer Ubuntu releases. The fix is a from upstream:
  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2016-May/msg06756.html

  [Test Case]
  TODO

  [Regression Potential] 
  The regression potential is considered low since the change is minimal and obviously correct. In addition I personally used the patch for months (until upgrading to 17.04) and have several users how also use it without issue.

  
  == Original description ==
  From https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2016-May/msg06756.html:

  "EHTMLEditorView - Restore the selection end mark correctly when
  processing HTML to plain text

  Otherwise the ##SELECTON_END## string could be left in the output."

  I sometimes see this from people on xenial. Patch is in the commit
  list needs a light backport. I will attach a debdiff if it works.
