Only that's NOT the status quo, if by that you mean what happens now, and if
you're using Shift-F3 to cycle (perhaps you weren't referring to that??). What
happens now is:
> ("Mary Jones met [joe] Smith" - "joe" is selected)
> First keypress: Mary Jones met [Joe] Smith
> Second keypress: Mary jones met [joe] smith (sentence case applied; Jones and
> Smith decapitalised)
> Third keypress: Mary jones met [JOE] smith
> Fourth keypress: Mary jones met [joe] smith
I hesitate to suggest this, but one option may be to change the process to be
as follows:
> ("Mary Jones met [joe] Smith" - "joe" is selected)
> First keypress: Mary Jones met [Joe] Smith
> Second keypress: Mary jones met [joe] smith (sentence case applied; Jones and
> Smith decapitalised)
> Third keypress: Mary Jones met [JOE] Smith (sentence case reverted/undone
> before trying next option)
> Fourth keypress: Mary Jones met [joe] Smith
This would be regardless of whether a selection was made or not. The problem
is that if the cycling is also fixed to start from the beginning of the cycle
rather than the next step after the previous when a new bit of text is
selected, the user might move the cursor elsewhere after the second step and be
stuck with the unwanted sentence case. Although there's always the undo
button.
