selection drag cancelled when mouse leaves window

Project Member Reported by skobes@chromium.org, Jan 19 2018 
Chrome Version: 65.0.3325.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit)
OS Version: Debian GNU/Linux rodete 201801RD2
URLs (if applicable): https://output.jsbin.com/qelavi/quiet
Other browsers tested:
  Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
    Firefox: OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Begin selecting text by dragging the mouse.
2. While the mouse button is down, move the mouse outside the window.
3. While the mouse button is down, move the mouse back into the window.

What is the expected result?
Selection is updated continuously as the mouse moves, even after step 3.

What happens instead of that?
Mouse movements after step 2 do not update the selection.

I think this worked on Ubuntu 14 (Trusty), but is broken on gLinux Rodete (Debian Testing distro).  The desktop environment is Cinnamon 3.4.6.

Tested on Trusty. Doesn't work, either.

Thanks Xiaocheng, it appears this is actually a Chrome regression.  I ran a bisect and got:

  https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+log/3f0d8125..9a911337

Based on this I am suspecting r474450.  Navid, could you take a look or re-route?
