This is bug #165744.

No, issue is unrelated to that: okular could let you scroll and continue the
selection to another page, but this would always result in the highlight split
in the pages it selected; this is due to the fact that annotations, as designed
in the PDF standard, are specific to a page, so they cannot span more than one.
