In the following code,
((Boolean) e.widget.getData())

if I double-click just inside the inner brackets, it selects Boolean.
This is fine.

However,
If I double-click just inside the outer left bracket, it also selects Boolean.
If I double-click just inside the outer right bracket, it selects nothing.
I would expect it to select the whole expression (excluding the outer brackets) 
in both these cases.
