Comment 95 for bug 129403

fme->scottydm/all: [...] In my method I wanted to snap the cursor down to the
next line at the first
practical moment, in effect saying to the typist, "Put your text here." If he
continues to tap the space bar the cursor does not advance on the new line, but
spaces pile up in the margin of the previous line. [...]

I don't think we can/should do this. This would allow you to create a new line
(that increases the paragraph height) by entering a couple of blanks. I don't
think that any other Word Processor behaves like that. Also this could break the
layout of existing documents.

I would prefer a simple solution that covers the most important use case over a
complex solution that covers all use cases. A simple solution would also
increase the probability that this gets implemented in the near future.

So the initial request is, that you cannot see the spaces at the end of a line
in case there's a line break. So my proposal is: Let's paint them. Nothing more,
nothing less. If you have more that one blank at the end of the line, you'll see
it, and that's the point, isn't it? What do you think?

[...] Unfortunately, I don't know a lick of Java. [...]

No Java, C++ ;-)
