[QScintilla] Symbian highlighting bug

I'm using QScintilla for a Symbian-based App and I've come across a 
strange problem with highlighting/selecting text. Basically, if any text 
is selected, it tends to get deleted upon a various actions. The main 
problem is that one of those actions is opening the menu. If I open the 
menu to perform an action on some text, the first thing that happens is 
the selected text gets deleted.

I'm also trying to use gestures to perform actions, but the gestures 
also selects some of the text behind. Upon processing some of the 
gestures, the selected text gets deleted.

I assume that it's something to do with re-drawing the screen with 
selected text. I'm only seeing this issue on the Symbian platform. Is 
there any special behaviour when re-drawing the screen with regards to 
selected text? I might be able to sort out a symbian-specific workaround.

Kind regards
