I am looking into these issues now, but they are not very easy to fix.
There are several entangled problems, and I will need Stefan's help to
resolve them.
In particular, Stefan, the bug as cited above is caused by
pView->DocumentUpdated()
call in CUndo::Undo function.
I would replace that call by some other, less destructive function
(basically just last
4-5 lines of DocumentUpdated), but the fact that it is a virtual
function worries me.
What was the reason to make it virtual? I can not find any overrides
in inherited classes,
but may be I am not looking good enough?

This surprised me too first time I tried TMerge editing, but I think this
is intentional to allow both line-oriented selection required for context menu
and char-oriented selection for editing.
So before changing that I think a discussion of desired semantics is needed.
Simon, can you perhaps describe proposed semantics?
If/when your proposal will be implemented,
you can copy-paste description into the manual ;-)
