[Gvsig_english] Severe editing issue in GvSIG 1.1.2

[Cesar Martinez Izquierdo]

Hello Jo,

I think there is another work-around: press ENTER after typing the 
wished value. I hope this is good enough for you.

Regards,

   César

As it has been fixed in 1.9, is there any chance of a backport of this fix to 1.1.2?
