Details:

Since this bug was closed (or for some other reason) Savannah would not let
me add a comment to http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?25260. So I am starting a
new item.

This is still happening. I will attach a screen shot.

One way to make this happen is related to another minor annoyance, which I
will explain here.

I do a lot of copy and pasting from BE to web pages. To do this, I often want
to grab a verse at a time. If I click right in front of the verse number, BE
will switch to that verse. The if I click one space to the left (right after a
period at the end of a verse, for instance), then BE will forget to revert to
that verse, and all the other windows will stay focused on the next verse. BE
will stay stuck like this for a fairly long time, usually until some movement
wakes it up.

It would be helpful if BE would not switch to the next verse when the cursor
is right in front of the next verse. In other words, it would be better if a
shift to the next verse would only occur when clicking past the first digit of
the verse number.

In the attached screen shot, I clicked right to the left of verse 21. All the
windows changed to verse 21. But I was really wanting to copy from the end of
20. So when I clicked one space to the left, BE did not update the windows
back to v20. I had long enough to activate my screen capture program to grab a
screen shot of the region. After coming back from saving the screen shot, then
BE finally figured out that the curson was in verse 20.

This problem doesn't just happen when using the mouse to click in a different
verse (second screen shot), but also happens when first clicking before a
verse number then moving left with the arrow key. (third screen shot)
