Double-clicking to edit text should place the cursor in a consistent location.

Your idea

When you double-click a piece of text to edit it, the cursor appears at a different spot each time (generally close to where you have actually clicked). This can be inefficient because you're never sure where the cursor is going to be. It would be nice to have the cursor appear in a consistent spot, either at the beginning or the end of the text string.

Problem to be solved

It's just more reliable if you know where to expect the cursor to be each time. It is difficult to be precise enough to click in the exact spot you need, plus having to be that precise takes more time.

Prior art

Sibelius always places the cursor at the end of the text, regardless of where you have double-clicked.

Start by reproducing the double-click text-editing behavior in MuseScore and trace the desktop text-editing interaction from there. Confirm whether the intended behavior is to place the cursor at the beginning or end of the text, then verify that repeated double-clicks consistently use that location.
