I think you need to demonstrate that the majority of users want this bizarre behaviour. It means, if you select some text, and copy it, and past it, you no longer get that text - you get some complex, multiple amount of visually-reordered text which is unsuitable for further processing. I am having a hard time believing that this is what even a few users want, far less the majority. -- Chris
