Hi,

am I am expecting on linux the following behavior:

- single click on a word, nothing happens
- double click on a word, this word is selected
- trippleclick, the whole paragraph is selected

Thats how it already works for me in rekonq.

The rightclick actions in most kde applications behave like this:

Provide a default contextmenu with actions like "back", "forward", "reload"... 
on top. Then a seperator and text-context-items like "copy" below...if nothing 
is selected, those items are disabled or even not shown.

Just my look'n'feel thoughts ;-)

Johannes
