--- Comment #6 from Philip Rayment <PJRayment at Yahoo.com.au> ---
I get the same results as in comment 5, but the problem is that that example
doesn't properly test the function.

Part of the issue is that Shift-F3 starts with the next case after the last one
used, even if that was on a different bit of text.

Perform the following steps:
1. Write two sentences as follows:
  This should be title case.
  John Smith and Joe Blow wrote to fred jones.
2. Select the first sentence and press Shift-F3 once or as many times as needed
to have every initial letter capitalised, i.e. "This Should Be Title Case."
3. Select "fred jones" and press Shift-F3
The result is that sentence case is applied to the whole sentence, which now
reads as "John smith and joe blow wrote to fred jones."  So this has just
uncapitalised "Smith", "Joe", and "Blow", and done nothing to "fred jones".
4. Press Shift-F3 three more times and "fred jones" will become "Fred Jones". 
5. Now select "joe blow" and press Shift-F3.  This changes "Fred Jones" back to
"fred jones"!  Without stepping through cases on a different bit of text, there
is no way to get the correct capitalisation through using Shift-F3.  It cannot
be done.
