Form Field navigation

Two issues here:
1) ctrl left/right only jumps on whitespace. Should be able to navigate on language tokens (e.g. '::' or '.' or changes in capitalization).

2) Double-click should have rotating toggle.
# all of field not word/capitalization separated from current click postion
# all of field not whitespace separated from current click position
# entire field

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. Since the creation time of this ideas the product has evolved and your input may have been incorporated into newer releases.
    Should this be not the case, please feel free to recreate it in our new Idea workspace for DevOps Model and Code RealTime (Please find here a blog how to achieve that: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/wasdevops/blogs/osman-burucu/2024/01/04/how-to-add-new-idea-for-devops-model-architect-and)

    The idea will be kept in IBM's ideas repository and may still be voted on. It might be reassessed or reopened for additional feedback in the future. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us the privilege of partnering with you in developing our products.

    Status from Jim Burke indicates this will be part of 9.0.1. Can this be delivered to the 8.5.1 stream as well?

    Ok. Yes, it would make sense to support this for the Property fields where code is entered, for example "Type" and "Default Value". We'll investigate if we can override the default Eclipse text field behavior for those.

    The biggest concern the user had was with Type fields, mostly when he wants to select some part of the type field of a param/attribute to copy/paste elsewhere.

    Which form fields are this RFE for? Is it for fields in the TC editor, properties editor or somewhere else?
    I assume this requirement mainly is important for fields where some formal language, such as code, is entered, since the described behavior deviates from standard Eclipse form field behavior, and is more similar to how for example code editors work.
