Nasty "feature":
when you have "convert dot to ->" enabled and you have the following situation:
xyz.someMember = 1;

Now you replace xyz (which is a struct) with pabc (which is a pointer to the same struct) and type a dot after pabc, VA will nicely replace the typed dot with ->, but he existing dot remains.
So far so good. BUT: there is no way to delete the old dot, even if you move the caret away from the location, move it back between -> and the dot, pressing DEL will always delete the -> instead of the dot. Only leaving the line, or deleting with BACKSPACE, or inserting another character (space) between works.

VA6 did it properly.
