Wow! Thanks a lot! this is really great. I stumbled across this behavior 
by accident, and thought I was dreaming, did not know how to reproduce 
it, though.
And I also noticed that "enter" eventually leaves the box edit mode and 
selects the object! This makes patching a lot faster, although as Frank 
already said, it will take a day or two to get used to it.

Best,

Marius.
