OpenOffice follows the same behaviour than LyX. Kword, Abiword and if I
remember right MsWord are in the opposite group.
I think LyX actual behaviour is quite nice. You generally want to change the
format of the whole word, not of 3 letters in the middle of it.
Nevertheless, I was wondering if it would be possible when you put your
cursor in the middle of a word and select the formatting character dialog
that LyX highlights the whole word, to make it clearer where you formatting
change will apply.
Some kind of highlight would be ok, but not a selection.
After changing formating I am going to type more, and don't
want to erase the word by overwriting the "selection".
