I have to agree with you. Besides, what exactly do the developers think they are saving? A quarter centimeter of mouse movement? I'd rather have the double click select word and triple click select line thing and *always* character by character drag selection.


The classic solution to this on Macintosh is that a drag that starts with a double-click selects words at a time and a drag that starts with a triple-click selects lines at a time.


I know this is old stuff, but after finding out how this works and actually trying it for a while, I am sold. It works very well, it just needs to be more prominantly advertised as I know I am not the only one who didn't know about it until this thread.
