BBEdit just selects the text, exactly as if you'd dragged across it with 
the mouse. That's handy because you can hit an arrow key, which removes 
the selection, and start typing. Or you can type any string and it 
replaces the selected text (which can be a surprise the first time until 
you realize it's just a text selection, but "undo" works to fix it.)

I like that it is simply a text selection. It uses my selection color 
and acts as I'd expect. It allows undo to work, or lets me grab the 
selected chunk and drag to move it elsewhere.
