There seems to be confusion here between the behaviour of single line text icons (i.e. the URL bar) and full editor applications (Edit and Impression). The two have never behaved the same way, although with Select 3 bringing selections and cut&paste to iocns there are now some similaries with the behaviour encouraged for editor applications given in the style guide. Wimp icons still don't support more advanced behaviours such as keyboard short cuts to clear to the end of lines, and any application offering such facilities are employing additional code.
