This is a fork of bug #220029.
Add support for SelectAll action.
Comment 1 ivan 2012-12-13 05:39:24 UTC 
Tricky thing is deciding what to do when things are changing underneath. I.e.
more output is being added and history is scrolling out.

So, at the time of the action will set a selection.
The beginning of the selection will be advanced as it scrolls out of history such that after enough
time the selection might become empty.
The end of the selection will _not_ be extended as more output is added.

The above handles the common case of things being relatively quiet.
