At least three situations:
- -changing the Textmode resolution (resize or SVGATextMode) requires
restarting selection sometimes
- -for quite some Mouse/Videocard combinations selection and X won't work
together -> selection -k; X; selection;
- -dosemu on the console and selection don't work pretty well together.
