           Summary: Selected text gets deleted when switching windows
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.0.4
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: get.sonic yahoo co uk


Version:           4.0.4 (using KDE 4.0.4)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

How to reproduce:
1. Open some KDE apps - dolphin, Kate & KWrite
2. Activate one application, Kate for example.
3. Select some text in the text editor
4. Switch to another window (with Alt+Tab or clicking on the panel)
5. Switch back to the original window (with Alt+Tab or clicking on the panel)
6. The selected text gets deleted!

The problem can be seen in the address bar in dolphin, editors Kate & KWrite, the text box in 'Systems settings' etc.; but *not* in Konsole, Opera address bar, Thunderbird search bar etc.

If I'm right, the problem happened *after* I updated to KDE 4.0.4.
