Hi Shiny;

Story.<br />
<br />
So I develop my sites in Visual Studio. &nbsp;Every once and a while I would have two characters get displaced, more specifically, swapped positions. &nbsp;I figured that while I was editing, I would leave the window open and continue to do something on my second monitor and then come back and accidentally highlight and drag a letter one position over. &nbsp;I couldn't believe I was doing this so often. &nbsp;A colleague asked me a question yesterday that required me to look something up. &nbsp;I went over the the other monitor, and without giving the browser focus, and I hit control-t to open a new tab. &nbsp;Where I then realized that control-t swaps characters around the insertion point. &nbsp;I was very relived to find this out.<br />
<br />
<br />
Anyway, I could have done without the story, but this question remains. &nbsp;What in the world is this feature used for? &nbsp;I cannot imagine a scenario in which I would use this feature. &nbsp;
