             Bug #: 33127
           Summary: Double-clicking a word selects several non-Latin words
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: i18n
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: VisualEditor

In most web browsers and text editors double-clicking a word usually selects
one word. In the Visual Editor this works for Latin words, but not for words in
other scripts - i tried:

* Russian: Мой дядя самых честных правил
* Devanagari: कोणीही घडवू शकेल असा हा मुक्त ज्ञानकोश आहे
* Georgian: რომლის განმარტებითაც იგი ბავშვების

In all cases double-clicking a word selected the whole sentence.

I didn't check the code, but my guess is that the word boundary algorithm only
understand the Latin script.
