 This behaviour is by design.

Could we improve the design at this point?  It really does hinder entering 
mixed 
case text.

1.  Here's the present behavior that trips me.  I'm holding Shift to enter 
capitalized text and hit the Space bar to add a space before the next word 
(usually in caps, too).

2.  Apparently the rule is stateless.  How about adding state?

3.  Proposal (casual spec):  Merely holding Shift down doesn't cause Space to 
be 
treated as column select.  Instead, Space immediately after pressing (and while 
holding) Shift is treated as column select.  (That is to say, if Shift was 
already pressed down when the PREVIOUS key was typed, then Space while Shift is 
down simply enters a space, the same as if Shift were up.)

4.  Proposal (alternate):  Require holding the RIGHT Shift key down while 
pressing Space bar, since many touch typists heavily use the left Shift key for 
typing (as distinct from a mouse substitute).

I tried to use Insert Rows from the context menu to put an empty row at about 
row 10 (out of about 45 rows total).  The cursor (green triangle) jumped to the 
row following the last (e.g. 45th) row.  I did not get a blank row anywhere 
near 
where I intended.  There is no data in the table yet.

I intend to attach the table to this issue.

I filled in text into the column following Field Type.  After saving, the 
fields 
were cleared.  This happened at least twice with the same fields!  I reproduced 
the problem this way:

1.  Enter comment into the column following Field Type.
2.  Save
3.  On a different field's line, change the Field Type.
4.  Save.  The comment field of step 1 above changed to blank. 

Other sequences, only slightly different, don't make the comment vanish!

I intend to attach the Table file where I can show this behavior.
It is the same file as attached to Issue 53304.

In the database table design window, if I hit the space bar while holding the 
Shift key, the whole column is highlighted (as if selected), instead of 
inserting a blank character.

Maybe this comports to the rules of some graphical user interface that I've 
never seen, and so is working as desired.  For me, it sure violates the user-
interface principle of least surprise.  It violently interrupts my attempt to 
type some upper-case letters in the mixed-case Description column.  

I hope it's considered to be a bug and can be fixed as such.
