[squeak-dev] Bug in trunk? 'select all' in Workspace, line counting issue?

Thanks Marcel!  This is working here now, 6.0alpha-21644.

Unfortunately when testing this, I'm noticing another change I didn't expect. Cmd-Left Arrow and Cmd-Right Arrow do not navigate between words in the Workspace anymore.  All Cmd-arrow keys (up, down, left, right) now move to the beginning/end of the Workspace text.  

Was this an intentional change?  If so, I'm dismayed — not only because it breaks my muscle memory from ~fifteen years of using this, but also because it's now inconsistent with how code panes in Browser work (Cmd-Left/Right arrow still navigate between tokens/words in browser code panes...) and having Workspace keyboard navigation work differently from code pane keyboard navigation seems non-ideal...?

For what it's worth, I noticed that Home/End (a.k.a. Fn-Left and Fn-Right on an Apple keyboard) seem to retain their behavior of going to the beginning/end of line, so that's at least comforting.  :) 

Thanks again,
Tim
