Are you serious, man? 99% of the time when I make a text selection it is to drag (or copy) it and not to create another one starting from the middle of the old one just for fun. In the 1% of error the Carbon behavior prevents me from *nothing*, I just click once to remove the selection.

The Cocoa behavior is a real pain in the lower back. Text and proxy icon drag (where 99% of the time I want to drag the window and not the proxy icon). They got it the wrong way around.

Not only does one click remove the selection, if it's implemented correctly one click also moves the text cursor where you clicked.
BBEdit and SimpleText implemnt drag+drop text in the most ideal manner.
