--- Comment #3 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
@Sarvasri : sorry, if this is the so-called standard behaviour then Apple's own
Pages.app does not respect it either, in fact it behaves just like LibreOffice.

I typed this phrase into Pages.app :

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.

Then I double clicked on quick, and using the shift key, clicked on the letter
"a" in lazy. The cursor selection extended from quick to the "a" in lazy, but
did not select the whole word lazy.

So unless I have misunderstood what it is you are trying to achieve, I can not
reproduce, and LibreOffice behaves just like Apple's Pages app.

I also did a comparison the app called TextWrangler. This behaves in the same
way as Pages and LibreOffice.

The fact that one text editing app provided with the OS behaves in a different
way to the other mainstay apps that Apple provides clearly does not make it
standard behaviour...
