Personally, this is one of the most annoying feature added to Evolution.
When I read my email, I habitually highlight words, indicating where I was
reading. When I'm done reading, I hit reply, and gosh, I got some
incomplete words in the email body. So, I have to repeatedly cancel the
reply message window, highlight some text, then it will proceed to the next
stage of highlighting the whole line, then I could remove the highlight in
such a way that the reply message body is complete, not empty. If there is
an option to optionally disable this feature, I would then not be annoyed
so much.
(I apologize if my expression is a bit too strong somehow...)
