Keyboard- and mouse shortcuts are wonderful, but why does trippleclicking a 
paragraph not select the entire paragraph in Writer.

Take a look at MS Word. The cursor changes shape in the left-margin (flips 
horizontally) and then one click selects the line, two the paragraph.

How about implementing this as a nice quickie for OOo 2.0? :-)

Triple-click selects the sentence, 4-click selects paragraph.

But see Issue 50280.

Almost SEVEN years later - I strongly encourage you to do something about this
issue. It just can't be that difficult to add this tiny usability feature.

Finally! :o) 

Please note that the current implementation of triple- and 4-click in paragraphs 
satisfies me, the original reporter, as tested in OOo 3.2 RC-1.

This issue can probably be closed now.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
