This behaviour seems much preferable to me, since otherwise it's not
clear which text gets selected.  I'm not in favour of adding an option,
but if there must be one, at least let this new behaviour be the
default.

Regarding the code, I notice that using (sit-for 0) works as well.  A
comment to explain what the calls are for would be nice.
