I just upgraded to thunderbird 1.5.0.7 under breezy. This behaviour is, I believe, new with this upgrade. I've never noticed it before, and it would be quite obtrusive to have random bits of text inserted into outgoing email.

Steps to reproduce:
1. start thunderbird
2. compose email, add enough lines so the scroll bar appears.
3. select text from any application by dragging the mouse. The paste buffer now has that text in it.
4. in the email composition window, middle click the scroll bar. This is *supposed* to quickly jump to some place in the outgoing email message.
5. the result instead is the selected text is pasted into the email message.
