System Information
Operating system: Linux-5.19.16-200.fc36.x86_64-x86_64-with-glibc2.35 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 520.56.06

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.4.0 Alpha, branch: master (modified), commit date: 2022-11-01 11:19, hash: 3f91540cef
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Doubleclick to select full words in textedit fields (datablock names, file names in the File Browser etc.) does not work using tablets.
The resulting selection seems to be truncated from left to the cursor position (but not til the end of the word).
This works fine using a mouse.
This also works fine in the Text Editor.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
ui_tablet_textedit_doubleclick_select_words.blend

open blend
when renaming the collection (just an example, any textedit should show this behavior), try to select full words using a doubleclick/tab with the pen
resulting selection is truncated from the start of the word to the current cursor position

Quick check shows that ui_do_but_textedit seems to do the same thing for mouse vs. tablet in regards to ui_textedit_move.
Maybe this is reset elsewhere shortly after?

@Harley : is this something you would be interested in?
