TextItem/TextAreaItem selection change(d) handler

when is DynamicForm.onMouseDown called?

Fiddling around with various handlers on my DynamicForm and FormItems, I notice that I never see a call to the form's MouseDownHandler.

Clicking into an item leads to Item.Click- and Form.Up-events.
I see no event if I just press the button without releasing it.
(Of course, I see MouseMove-events all the time, and the first MouseMove-event with isLeftButtonDown after one w/o could probably be interpreted as a MouseDown-event.)

Is this by design? If so, what is the purpose of the MouseUp-event?
If not, what am I missing?

This is development mode, SmartClient Version: v8.2p_2012-05-31/LGPL Development Only (built 2012-05-31) and Internet Explorer 8.0.7601.17514 64-bit edition.

Hello!
I'm looking for a handler to react upon changes in the text selection. I have looked into the documentation of FormItem (and also of TextItem); I have searched the forum and the internet - in vain.

Is there anything I'm missing?

Regards and thanks in advance,

Walter
