In Narrator the behavior is even worse, mark mode with up/down arrow is basically unusable

The underlying issue is likely as follows. When moving through a normal text editor with an UIA implementation, that impl only fires selection events when selecting with shift+arrows, with the mouse or something else that involves text selection. On the contrary, Terminal seems to fire selection events for cursor movement as well. IMO mark mode in Terminal should behave similar to conhost in that it does not fire selection events for cursor movement.

Pretty sure this is /dup #13447?

[LeonarddeR]

Yes, it is. Sorry for the duplicate. I should change my searching heuristics probably.
I will use the area accessibility label in the future.
