You are correct. I don't forgot. I meant this is the first time we talk
about how the code works. The stretching problem is a bug, and I
consider the SELECTION type like a style comment.

I don't want you to shut up. I'd like you emailed a "I see these
problems" when you noticed them, and maybe some discussion about how can
it be improved where all people (including me) could be able to
participate. You don't need to have a working proposal just to say you
don't like using the undo functions.


Your diffs are quite huge. Could you write a little brief explaining how
the move and copy actions are handled with your changes?

Thanks,

Carlos
