Hard to select text with mouse

Reported by vansos...@gmail.com, Sep 22 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.91 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Try to select text in block using mouse dragging, holding left button

What is the expected behavior?
Text selects well corresponding to cursor position.

What went wrong?
It selects from the end of the line. See the attached gifs.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.91  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: 

I tested this in chrome and opera - works the same way in both browsers.
And in other engine browsers it works correctly.

Second gif is a "hacked" block. It seems like the first varian should work correctly.

Comment 2 by vansos...@gmail.com, Sep 25 2017 

UPD: reproduces only when container display:flex

Navigated to wikipedia.com and selected text using mouse drag , holding left button.

@Reporter: Could you please provide sample file on which you are seeing this issue and could you also check this on fresh profile which has no extensions and apps.

Thanks!
