Debug file with possible show what issues happened

Dear Joanie,

I found a possible bug with new committed Orca's Gecko selection related fix, testcase is following:
1. Open in Firefox the http://www.origo.hu/hirmondo/techbazis/20131219-segitseg-uj-windowst-kaptam.html website.
2. Positioning the second paragraph with p letter, I simple navigating the first begin sentence after the date related line.
3. Try selecting entire text with SHIFT+DOWN arrow key.
Expected result: Orca always spokening selected text.
Actual result: Orca not always spokening selected text, for example not all text containing lines spokening when a line is selected.
This article containing various html objects (images, links, etc).

The debug file is attached.
Environment related informations:
OS: Ubuntu 14.04
Firefox version: Firefox 25.0
Orca version: latest updated master branch version

Thanks for the report Attila. But as I stated on the Orca list, the selection work is not yet finished and I already know there are instances where text selection fails to work, such as what you describe above. When I think I'm completely finished, I'll say so on the Orca list and then bug reports related to Firefox will be welcome. Right now, I'm only interested in bug reports for things which worked fine before the change and now are completely broken.
