The bug doesn't exist in the 5.0-201807260206 VM. This affects the input events coming in, which manifests in ways no one can predict.
Honestly guys, we literally threw away all the months of accumulated confidence value from testing that VM. This software is too complex to safely release any other way than long test cycles. There isn't any extra cost to the "wait" approach, whereas slamming in untested code potentially costs a lot -- everybody now has broken binaries out there, and now we have to put out yet another release of 5.2. :( It's just not worth the risk...

Hi Eliot and all,
I have just noticed in Squeak 5.2 that attempting to scroll a text pane beyond its scroll limit causes the text cursor to start moving. So, for example, when I have a selected expression in the debugger, and I simply scroll the text pane, I hit the end and lose the selection, which is incredibly annoying.
Does anyone know why this is and how to fix it?
Thanks
