In MS-Office text can be selected, when clicking in a word (even in the middle, 
or at the end of 
it) and by moving the mouse further on to the next word the first word gets 
selected 
completely as will all of the following words too. ALL WITHOUT A DOUBLECLICK. 
This is 
very userfriendly and makes more sense to most people.

In OO we can double click on a word and then move the mouse along to the next 
words. But 
this is not as convenient as the MS-behaviour. Microsoft just knows how to make 
their 
products more comfortable to use. USER EXPERIENCE ALWAYS COMES FIRST. 
So the default behaviour of OO should be configurable: The MS-one, or the 
OO-one. But let us 
users please have this choice. And please do not say "worksforme". Just because 
it doesn't 
match your taste, doesn't mean that all people do think so. In fact: Many 
people would be 
greatful, if you'd just fulfill this request.

Thank you for listening and for the good work this far.
