You can see the difference in e.g. Apple Mail and Qt Creator:
* In Apple Mail, if you select a block of text when composing a message and then click in the "To" field, the selection disappears.
* In Qt Creator if you select a block of text in the main editor, and then click in the "Find" field, the selection remains.

I don't think it necessarily needs to be exposed in a high-level components API.
