--- Comment #38 from Kriton Kyrimis <kyrimis at alumni.princeton.edu> ---
The way I see it, things are pretty simple: If the user selects a piece of text
and asks for something to be done with it, he expects that something to be done
with only that piece of text. If the result is not what he expected, his
reaction will be "oh, yeah, I should have made a different selection", undo the
change and try again. On, the other hand, if that something is done with other
parts of the document, the user's reaction could well be "why did this happen?
I didn't ask for this", as, e.g., with that A, signifying Amperes, in the first
comment.

Thus, if you can fix this issue, please do so, and do it in the simplest
possible way, i.e., only applying case changes in the selected text, even if it
means introducing a capital letter in the middle of a word. There is no need
for LO to try and second-guess the user.

Thanks.
