Its not but its not intuitive which is why I suggested somebody wrote
a basics article on it. Its more what to ignore than what to use on
there. Its a typical site trying to be everything to everybody but
ending up a bit of a cluttered mess for most unless they know the
tricks. I do not particularly like the in field helpful comments
either. I'd prefer separate fields one can fill in for the various
questions myself.

Hi Quentin,
Unfortunately, I’m still seeing the text field related lags I
mentioned after the release of 2017.3 (namely announcements of text
highlighting, beginning/end of document/field messages etc). Luckily
for me there was nothing seriously important for me to need to upgrade
(both 2017.3 and 2017.4 seem to be concentrating on Braille and
Windows 10, both of which are irrelevant for me at present), but I
felt it important to mention it again in case others are still having
these issues.
I would post it as an issue on GitHub, except that as far as I’m
concerned, that site seems to have made its way down from heaven on
Mars. Forget the programming elements and integrations with Git (which
is an aeroplane cockpit in and of itself), even posting issues seems
to be a full day’s work for me.
Cheers.
Damien.
