Please describe your bug.

When making a selection using a SelectField component in Firefox on Windows, after clicking on an option in the dropdown, the chosen value in the SelectField is focused and has an active text selection.

What's the expected behaviour?

The text label of the current value in the SelectField should not become selected when choosing an option.

Help us reproduce the bug!

Using Firefox on Windows:

1. Using a mouse, click on a SelectField component. The options dropdown will appear.
2. Make a selection using the keyboard or mouse pointer.
3. Without any additional clicks, move the mouse pointer left and right and observe that the contents of the SelectField is being selected with a text selection region.
4. Click outside of the SelectField to unfocus the element and cancel the text selection.
