Changing the forward-word function is out of the question (it's a function used at may places, so changgin its behavior has to be done extremely carefully). That's what Richard is talking about. Whereas you're maybe just talking about M-f and M-b, which can be changed with something like a thai-word-mode minor mode, to which nobody would object. Until someone provides an actual patch, we can't tell whether it's OK. Stefan
