 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Create a new post and paste the following in text mode, then switch
 back to visual mode. This is equal to adding a paragraph, and inserting a
 small, left aligned image.
 {{{
 <img class="alignleft" src="http://placekitten.com/150/150" alt="Kitten"
 width="150" height="150" />This is a paragraph.
 }}}
 2. Select the image by clicking on it and align the image to the right.
 The selection moves to the start of the paragraph.
 3. Go back to text mode and paste the following. This is almost the same
 as above, but the text and image are in a different paragraph. Note that
 is is visually indistinguishable.
 {{{
 <img class="alignleft" src="http://placekitten.com/150/150" alt="Kitten"
 width="150" height="150" />

 This is a paragraph.
 }}}
 4. Select the image by clicking on it and align the image to the right.
 The selection is kept, though the toolbar still disappears.

 This happens in 3.8 and probably earlier versions as well. It looks like
 this is a TinyMCE bug.
 However, the disappearing toolbar is WordPress. (De)selecting the image
 does not always go together with the toolbar (dis)appearing. I've seen the
 opposite happen as well, where the selection is moved, but the toolbar
 doesn't disappear. I'll create another ticket if I can give steps to
 reproduce.
