You're absolutely right, of course.
I've used Mariner Write since it was a pup. I still use it for most of 
my writing.
it's continually getting better and better.
I've talked until I'm hoarse, applauding M.W. ~ To little effect.

There were bugs initially, and the program was not all that polished. 
But, one could see potential...
Now in it's severalth incantation, it's exceptionally capable, and very 
light on it's feet.
It takes up little room and is a great word processor. It can now hold 
it's own with almost any other word processor.

Do give it a try. No commitment if you find out you don't like it, so 
why not?
