Re: TT 3.78 -- editable numbers and text pads

Wow! I never thought it would feel so good to hit the arrow keys! Thanks 
Ken!

Everyone - please grab a copy and try it for 10-15 minutes at least. 
This is a major UI change, which I suspect also entailed some 
non-trivial internal changes. It is important to make sure we have this 
right.

Personally, I haven't found any bugs yet, but I have a conceptual puzzle:
Say I have two numbers, k and l, and I want to compute k/l. previously, 
I would pick up l, hit / and drop it on k. That doesn't work anymore. 
(same for any  operation other than +). So, what's the alternative?
