Also it could be discussed wether the behaviour of TV is annoying or not 
it is a present concept that was learned by authors for a long time. It 
would introduce a second concept and only leads to big efford in 
supporting authors with this change and inconsistenc.

I agree that the new concept is argueable but it should be possible to 
configure which concept should be used with preference on the 
old/TV-behaviour.

Its about user expirience and not if its "annoying". So please dont 
confuse the users that are already working with TV.
