--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
MSO selects a word per double-click, and the paragraph on triple, we do word ->
sentence (not line) -> paragraph. And while we keep the caret visible and put
it on the end of the selection, MSO hides it completely -- and keeps the view
port.

I agree that changing the view port (whether scrolling to the next page or to
the line end in case you have zoomed in) is at least surprising. But as Stuart
mentioned it is also a safety measure since you get feedback of what has been
selected.

Similar request in bug 137603 to "Keep cursor position on SelectAll" (with some
duplicates). We do not scroll to the end of the document on ctrl+a / select all
until attributes have changed.
