If we had a persona "Andre" this would love to just select a range and text,
press Ctrl+P, Return. As we do not have such a Persona, it's only
my very private use case ;)

The szenario that only a drawing object gets printed, when a drawing
object is selectd should be fixed - thanks for that (I've not been aware
of this silly behaviour). I would like to keep the the default to
"print selection" when a text range is selected. But - this might be 
complicated to implement and still be confusing for users.

regards,

André


Btw.: I just noticed that LibO / OOo seems to be my favourit application
for printing a selection. All other applications seem to default to 
"print all" no matter if there is a current selection or not.
