Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a Alloy site
2. Use hte latest episerver version(10.8.0)
3. Open chrome 58.
4. Go to a xhtmlstring(tinymce) property and add a image. (or you could just go to a page with an xhtmlstring property with an image in it)
5. Try selecting the image to change it. By selecting I mean only clicking on it. If you drag the mouse at the same time I think the selection will work.

Expected:
No issues

Actual:
The error will be logged to the browser console and the selection will fail.

Note: This is a known issue with tinymce and is fixed with the latest version:
