Disabling "Click Selection" on search results

Under "Format", there's a setting for "Click Selection". I remember that in Splunk 6, I could set that to "None" (or the moral equivalent at the time), which I did way-back-when.

Now that our installation is running Splunk 8, I was noticing that my colleagues got this highlighting behavior that I promptly tried out, trying to set Click Selection to "Full", "Inner" and "Outer". Unfortunately, none of these settings work well for me and I'd love to disable the setting again. Is that possible anymore?

Attached is a screenshot of the three selection options I see. I could swear there was a "none" or "off" there in earlier versions. We're running Splunk Enterprise 8.0.1, build 6db836e2fb9e.
