Cursor positioning at the end when accessing large text attributes

When accessing an exisiting text attribute in a DOORS column the cursor goes to the front of the text by default. When the text is large the column is usually narrow and long. Normally the user wants to add something at the end of the text but the cursor allways "jumps" to the top by default. It is both annoying and risky because sometimes the user may edit in the wrong place or get confused and trying to "find" the cursor. It would be great to have the cursor positioned by default at the end of the text when editing. Most text editors have this behavior. Even better would be to have the option in the settings to choose if you want the cursor to be positioned at the front or at the end of the text when accessing it for editing.
