[issue24893] Idle occasionally gets mouse position wrong for selections

Watched that video clip - yikes, that is bad.

I tried playing around to reproduce it, but haven't had any success yet, though did find another weird thing. If you have a bunch of short lines without any blanks, sometimes when you click well to the right of all of them, the cursor will end up at the beginning of one of the lines, rather than at the end of them. This wasn't consistent but did happen maybe 1/10th of the time.

Guido was running on a Mac. Were the other examples where you saw this missing by several lines also all on Mac?  (Not to say that means it's a Mac only bug, but...)
