Sounds unavoidable. That's where Undo helps a lot, I suppose.

a mis-click which touches only the vertical pipe in window tag and no other 
text causes selection to be removed. seems Acme executes a null command and 
replaces selection with the null result. any reason for the behavior?

If it really annoys you, avoiding it is actually quite easy.

Some time ago I wrote a small patch [1] to interpret the pipe symbol as
Edit when it is all the selected text (ie. when it is not followed by a
command). This is quite convenient to use the 1-2 chord with Edit commands.
You could either apply this patch or a modified version.
