Things that are visibility:hidden are not focusable. I don't think that
can be changed without compat problems. If visibility:hidden things are
not focusable, I guess it makes sense to not make it selectable, too.
(Possibly Web pages also expect visibility:hidden things to let clicks go
through?)
Sense aside, visibility:hidden is not selectable in any current browsers,
right?
