Someone here brought to my attention the fact that the Title case
spec is buried under Format/Character/Effects. You can select
extended text and then invoke this function. You can also record
a macro to automate the menu work and then give the macro a place
on your Formatting toolbar.

But beware that if you apply character formatting to a selection
that extends to the end of a document the setting persists. It
cannot be overridden via Format/Change case but must be undone
via Format/Character/Effects. IOW, you'll be typing it Title case
until you turn it off. Easy solution is to type a bit ahead of
the text you want to make title and then do the case change.
