You're probably right, but the issue is what "it" is.  This bug as opened was
about how sentence case works.  The problem I see is that bug 119495 has been
closed as a duplicate of this bug, but that bug was about sentence case being
used in the Shift-F3 cycle.  So "it" now includes the latter.  Perhaps bug
119495 should not have been considered a duplicate, and should have remained
open?

> It is clear from discussion of the feature, they did not consider that the SENTENCE_CASE would be added to the <Shift>+F3 toggle...
And to my mind, that is the key problem, because...

... the result is not just an "undesired effect", but a situation where
Shift-F3 is largely UNUSABLE.

Perhaps the quick fix is to remove sentence case from the Shift-F3 cycle so
that that is usable again, then come to some agreement about the original issue
in this bug and how it can be incorporated into the Shift-F3 cycle without
making that unusable.

But maintaining that the way that sentence case works is arguably correct
ignores the bigger problem of the Shift-F3 cycle being unusable, and therefore
misleads as to the urgency of fixing that clear bug.
