If I highlight a word using my keyboard, moving the cursor from the start of the word to the end of the word and then hit a shortcut key to select other instances of the word, multi-line editing works just fine.
But if I highlight starting from the end of the word and going to the start any subsequent selections I make using the shortcut key will place the cursor at the end of the word not the beginning. This slows down editing because before I can start making a change I first have to move both cursors to the end of the word and then back to where I want to edit.
I think it would be better if the caret always matches the position in the initial word/phrase that was selected.
Thank you!
