Editing Text Selections?

[Bob Sneidar]

I have heard rumors of advanced text control in the next major version  
of rev. I wonder, if that is not too far off, if it wouldn't be worth  
it to wait until that update, preceded by numerous pleas to the powers  
that be to implement such functionality so as to make your present  
conundrum moot? (Gawd I love using big words!)
