I respectfully disagree.
Accurately reading in edit boxes is important, and should never happen.
it's a basic thing.
If the competition can do this 100 percent, then
we should be able to do it too.
Peace.
Ps,
We pay good money for we so we shouldn't go
begging or feel like we are to ask for solutions, or address problems.
The good folks at gw aren't doing us a favor,
they are paid to make us a product to address our needs.
Being graceous of course and having good manners
should always be the operating mode, but let's
never forget the relationship here.
Solutions to our problems isn't a gift, it should be expected.
Now it's a different story for an open source or
free or maybe a low cost product, yes, I know the
situation has improved with edit controls,
and that's appreciated.
But this needs to be fixed once and for all, my students have trouble with it,
and it is a show stopper sometimes.

Guys,
First, we need to look at how often this happens.
seccond, if it doesn't happen much, then we shouldn't be complaining about it.
I'm not trying to be mean here, I'm just trying to state my opinion.
Thanks for reading.
