If this were cardpunch days, I'd speculate they dropped and scrambled a heap
of cards on the way from 2000 to 2003....
In a month of using 2003, I've found a dozen degradations. And I honestly
can't think of a single thing I prefer.
No one responded to this post here below, though that's another regular
irritation. Why did they do this? Just to cater to people who can't learn
that you shouldn't be able to move the cursor to the bullet in a bulleted
list?

Subject: Cursor invades bullet space in 2003
One of the changes in 2003 appears to be that the cursor can now be
positioned on the actual bullet character, in a bulleted list.
This is inconvenient. In 2000 I used to do a series of ctrl-downarrows to
get to the start of successive items in a bulleted list. Now when I do that
the cursor alternates between items and the bullets, so twice as many
keystrokes are needed.
Is there a way to turn this off?
-----------------------------------
Yep, same thing. I have documents that open at 105% even though they were
saved at a different Zoom and documents saved at 105% that invariably open
at 100%. It's a bug, and, like the ruler display, seems (somehow) related to
the window in which the document is opened.
