 Replying to [comment:6 ahocevar]:

 need to set {{{OpenLayers.Events.prototype.includeXY = true}}}.

 I was working on extending your patch to work with hover+highlightOnly and
 I have seen that there is a hidden bug.

 Why?: If you add the listener {{{beforefeatureselected}}}, the event
 {{{featureselected}}} has {{{evt.type ="beforefeatureselected"}}}. See:
 [http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/browser/trunk/openlayers/lib/OpenLayers/Events.js#L753
 Events.js - Line 753 in triggerEvent method]

 See the problem with this change [attachment:3578-bug-more-test.patch 3578
 -bug-more-test.patch]. then the test {{{"featureselected: evt.type is
 proper set."}}} fails (Without pull/67 this test works)

 Note: In this case it is not what is the best way to present the problem,
 a pull requesst in ahocevar/openlayers?
