Description Jeffrey Rubinoff 2011-08-16 16:06:05 UTC 
In Build 201108160601, selecting text and then selecting the Remove Surrounding Tag action does nothing. This is true even when all the text between the tags is selected.
Comment 1 Marek Fukala 2011-08-17 08:03:05 UTC 
Actually it is necessary to select the tag to be remove as well - see the video from the original enhancement. Otherwise it doesn't make much sense to be a selection hint.

I can possibly add similar hint which removes the enclosing tag pair for the caret position. Is that what you want?
Comment 2 Jeffrey Rubinoff 2011-08-17 10:24:44 UTC 
Yes, a hint removing the enclosing tag pair from the caret position would be brilliant. My apologies for not paying closer attention to video from enhancement request.
