It's a regression from #16899.

#18134 should make it easier to fix this.

I wonder whether this might be tied into #16883, because the unexpected behavior only occurs with annotations that are "burnt in." See the screenshot below, where the red highlighting is newly added:

Can those preexisting annotations have pointer-events: none?

I think this is now fixed.

No actually not, now clicking on the highlighted text will select the whole highlighted area.
