I wondered if I can do anyghing about the current behavior where when the exchange is made, the area in between is selected and highlighted. I don't want to turn off the newish behavior of how regions are selected, where it takes two strikes of spc bar to turn it off. I know there is a way to turn that off, but wondered if I might be able to ditch that un-wanted behavior some other way.
