Summary: Option to findwordstart to eat whitespace only after words

Initial Comment:
Attached is a patch against revision 12516.

Currently: the movement/deletion/selection commands that eat whitespace result in \
stopping at word-starts when moving forwards and stopping at word-ends when moving \
backwards.

The attached patch adds an option to TextUtilities' findWordStart that changes this \
to stop at word-starts only when moving backwards. (i.e. it eats whitespace only \
behind words and continues past word-ends)

To be useful, I also add new variants of TextArea's goToPrevWord and backspaceWord \
and the corresponding actions. If you then use these actions with the standard keys:

C+BACK_SPACE Delete Previous Word (Eat Whitespace after word)

C+LEFT Go to Previous Word (Eat Whitespace after word)

CS+LEFT Select Previous Word (Eat Whitespace after word)

you get the behaviour that most text areas have (such as for example this one in \
Firefox, which I am using now).

Cheers,
stefan

A small lobbying attempt: :-) This patch does not change default
behaviour, it simply adds movement commands to allow for the behaviour of
most other text areas out there. Thanks for your consideration.
