If I were filling out an Acme wishlist, I would like to see triple and
quadruple clicks select larger chunks of text.  Being able to do
something like click-click-click-click to "Select All" (in those apps
that support it) is frequently very useful.

I would also move the newline in a "selected line" to the begining of,
rather than the end of, the selection.  It would be much easier to cut
and paste lines if it didn't have to be done from all the way over in
the wee left margin.
