It's probably inconsistent because nobody's ever asked for ragged-left selection. When lines are ragged-left there's usually significance in the level of indentation, and in the rare cases where that indentation is not needed it's trivial to remove so there's nothing that ragged-left selection could achieve that can't already be done. In contrast, ragged- right selection is necessary in order to do block selection of the end of a set of lines when the longest line is in the middle of the block. -- Matthew Winn ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
