Ok, ok: part of word :-)

I'm for fixing / restoring 6.5. But that's because I need the 6.5 behavior much more often than the 6.7 one and I
want to save keystrokes while navigating.

But if the "word" definition stays 6.7 and you want to restore 6.5, then you have to change the default key table to replace word with part/token.
