           Summary: vt newcons: double click does not mark whole word if
                    word starts at beginning of line
           Product: Base System
           Version: Unspecified
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

vt newcons double click does not mark whole word if word starts at beginning of
line.

Problem description:
If one double clicks a word at the beginning of the line, then vt newcons marks
only the part of the word past the click coordinate.

Example:
If one double-clicks on the 'm' in the word "Example:" which starts at the line
beginning, only "mple:" gets marked.

Expected result:
Whole word "Example:" should be marked.

Workaround:
Mark the word by using placing mouse at beginning/end of section, press left
button, move mouse, and then release button.
