Select mode activated when closing tab

I have deleted and re-installed 1.6.5 and this problem still persists on FF5.0

Steps to reproduce: 1- open any two sites in two tabs 2- from tab one go to tab two using LeftMouseButton -> RightMouseButton rocker gesture (default action I believe) 3- now on the newly arrived tab use LRL (close tab, also default I think)

Now when I move the mouse, text gets selected as if I'm holding left mouse button.

Ah, I've just noticed the same bug with Ctrl+W instead of LRL close.

Steps to reproduce: 1- open any two sites in two tabs 2- from tab one go to tab two using LeftMouseButton -> RightMouseButton rocker gesture (default action I believe) 3- Click Ctrl+W

Now when mouse is moved text get selected in the last active tab

This issue has been happening from Long Long time . Even for Ctrl + W its happening but on disabling firegestures it is not happening . I indeed try to create a script for closing tab to avoid selection but not helpful [ window.getSelection().removeAllRanges();] .

Please some body look into this issue. This might not be big but a usability issue every time i close a tab , on next tab this mode is getting activated which is annoying and Happening from a Long time.
