Multiple selection from a text paragraph

I'm creating this report in the general product, since I cannot find the
Klipper app anywhere in the Bugzilla KDE tracker.

SUMMARY
When the "Text selection -> Always save in history" option is selected in
Klipper general configuration, when I select any text using the mouse, Klipper
save all possible text selections character by character (I have attached a
screenshort showing this). Instead, a single text selection should be saved
only after releasing the left mouse button.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure Clipboard...
2. Select the Always save in history option in Text selection
3. Using the mouse, press and hold the left click, select a text paragraph and
release the left button.
4. Left click on Klipper, you see all text entries starting from the first
character in the selected text until the last one, instead of one whole text
selection.

OBSERVED RESULT
Multiple text selections that are as many as the count of characters selected.

EXPECTED RESULT
One single text selection that contains the whole text from the mouse
selection. The text should be selected as a single entry only after releasing
the left mouse button.
