[UI] Fwd: [Newbies] PluggableTextMorph and rubberband

[Bill Schwab]

Guys,

For the record, I can live with it either way, though I think that some
focus indication is a good idea - again, MS of old did it that way for a
reason, based on feedback from users, to whom they actually paid some
attention in those days.

The amount of text snared is really of little interest to me.  I simply
was reminded of the trouble I had changing the background color, but
that is a morphic/squeak but, not anything wrong with Gary's work
(though we might be able to improve things, or I could be missing the
correct way to change it in Squeak as-is).  More later.

This is quite low on my priority scale.

Bill

Whilst I'm not at all convinced that any special focus indicator is  
needed, I am convinced that the aggressively visible dotted line  
around the *wrong* area is a poor choice. Currently in an empty text  
pane the dotted line appears around a single line instead of the  
rather more logical entire text pane.
