The underlying issue is this: FrameMaker users are keyboard-people, while CS (creative) users in the graphic area are mouse oriented. For graphic work this is also the case with me. But authoring text is typing and applying formats by short cuts.

With the large screens FM9 now supports it is slowing down my work significantly to take the mouse for such operations, even with a tablet which gives more instant access to remote locations on a screen.

BTW, backspacing in this text here on the very same machine is as fast as usual - so the issue is with FM9 only. The arrow keys have the same constraint: extending a selection by SHIFT+arrow right i-s-v-e-r-y-s-l-o-w!
