Double-clicking numbers should select the decimals as well

Hello! Sumatra is the best reader I've found so far. Unobtrusive UI, lightweight, highly-customizable. It's picture perfect, except for one small detail which has sadly forced me to revert back to Acrobat (for now at least). Double-clicking numbers doesn't include the decimals that come after (ex 257.88, only 257 gets selected). I go through a lot of sales reports and need to rapidly copy-paste select data from PDFs and into custom spreadsheets, so that would really help with my workflow. I understand text parsing is a fickle beast, but it's possible elsewhere, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks in advance! ;)
