You do not need to mark more text, in order to remove the old mark. Simply select nothing and re-mark it. It will unmark the text currently marked. That I think is a bug:

Sigil automatically senses when text has been marked and no other text has been highlighted, and changes the label to "Unmark Marked Text". calibre should also have an indicator that it is doing that. In the meantime, you could just pretend that is what the words say, and do it anyway.
