Swype double tap

Maybe I'm missing something but in the WinMo version of Swype theres an option to double a word that came out wrong and choose from a list of alternatives. That function doesn't seem to be included in the android one. I don't have nearly as many mistakes now with a capacitive touch screen as opposed to my old resistive, but I still get one every now and again and its easier to do that than place the cursor, backspace, and re-swype.
 
I've noticed this as well. In the tips videos on the Swype homepage they mentioned to double tap to highlight and bring up the window for word suggestions yet on my Droid version I have to highlight and press the Swype key. (bottom left)

This breaks the fluidity of it all in my opinion.
 
It still works, just not in all asps. Like in dolphin, double tapping makes the window go full screen, but in landscape it works fine.

It seems that in any app that uses double taps the app takes priority.

Only in landscape..
