i loathe confluences code boxes because of autoselect.

i often only want some lines from it... guess what? it selects the hole thing every time you try to explicitly select a small part of it (as in dragging the mouse while clicking over one word = whole document selected)

This one is the most annoying to me. For example if I want to use some analytics code but have a plugin or third party (segment.io) that I want to hand off just the "ID" to. If I try to select just the ID as soon as I release the mouse it select the whole thing. I have to copy it all into my note app (nvALT) then select want I want then delete all of it because I have no real desire to save it all as a note. Very irritating.

Hitting CMD+C while selecting the fragment usually works for me.
