One or two apps do it, e.g. > Impression, but normally typing in text doesn't replace selected text. Impression, yes, and Easiwriter, Artworks, Datapower and probably others whilst in Oreganos 1 & 2 overtyping in the address bar works 'as expected'. Wouldn't be suprised if the same was true of FFox but I can't be bothered to fire it up - life's too short. :-) I think it can reasonably said that overtyping in browser address bars is now expected behaviour whatever RO might traditionally have done and I believe that Xavier uses non-RO systems also.
