Description: Calc does not support double-click dragging to select text a whole word at a time. This is an important feature and I think every single Windows and Mac app in the last 30 years, including Windows and Mac OSes, have supported it. Writer supports it beautifully, so you guys already know it's important. But.... Impress does not support it (I don't care, as I don't use presentation ware at all); Draw also does not; Math doesn't, near as I can tell (never opened it until now); Base is UNKNOWN; it needs Java to create a new database, and I'm not installing that crap. The Base app is literally unusable for anything beyond basic tables & queries even on a local machine. I spent years making my living building .mdbs in MS Access, so I'm not exactly new to relational db concepts. PLEASE add double-click drag to select text. I still find it hard to believe that you don't. Thanks. Actual Results: Requesting enhancement. Why is this field mandatory? Expected Results: Requesting enhancement. Why is this field mandatory?

Yes. EditEngine-based objects (including text boxes in Writer) don't allow to extend selection started by double-click to select a whole word, when the mouse (with the left button kept pressed) is moved to select more words.
