(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #31)

Let's discuss the details :-)

1. What should be done when a sentence start is selected, but not to the
sentence end? (I'm pretty confident the sentence start here should be
capitalized.)
2. What should be done if a sentence end is selected, but not from start? (This
one IMO is not that straightforward: we can capitalize the first selected
character, or we may skip the sentence; my take would be capitalize first
selected character.)
3. What should be done if selection starts in the middle of a word (possibly
not the first in a sentence)? We could capitalize first character of the word
(again not good for Shift+F3); or first selected character; or skip the
sentence. (I'd capitalize first selected character.)
4. What should we do when there's no selection? We could capitalize first
character of current word (if any; like UPPERCASE at al work); or current
sentence. (My take is Capitalize current sentence.)
5. What should be done with Capitalize Every Word function, that now also
expands to whole words, even if only parts are selected? It's not in Shift+F3
IIUC, but it would become inconsistent. (I'd say change it consistently.)
6. Should we only do the change for Word, or for other modules
(Calc/Impress/etc) too for consistency? (I'd say yes.)
