--- Comment #13 from Patrick Luby <plub...@libreoffice.org> ---
OK. So I now see what is happening. vcl is trying to dispatch
MOVE_TO_BEGIN_OF_LINE/MOVE_TO_END_OF_LINE events but when editing a cell, Calc
rejects those events so vcl retries dispatching the last native event and the
last event is the "untransformed" Command-Left/Right keys.

I launched Microsoft Excel (the unpaid Mac App Store version) and found that
Command-Left/Right in Excel move only a word at a time left or right. So, I now
suspect that Calc is rejecting these MOVE_TO_BEGIN_OF_LINE/MOVE_TO_END_OF_LINE
events on purpose so that LibreOffice has the same behavior when editing cells
as Microsoft Excel for macOS.

@Heiko Tietze I think we are back to the bug filer's original question: is
copying Excel's behavior what we want? If yes, then we can close this bug. But
if no, then let me know and I'll see if I can find the code that rejects these
events in Calc only.
