1. Select text by rectangle selection (SHIFT + ALT + R, select rectangle area by mouse); 2. Try to change selected text to upper case (CTRL + U, U) Expected result: Text in the rectangle area changed to upper case Actual Result: Whole lines that the rectangle area covers changed to upper case.
Not actually a keybinding bug; but it seems that text processing actions must be adapted to rectangular selection. The standard selection interface interprets the rectangle as span from top-left to bottom-right selection corner. Maybe some intermediary layer that unifies at least read access to plain/rect selection would help ?
