Type some text into composer. Bar cursor is pointing to where the next character
will go. Press SPACE bar on keyboard, & cursor doesn't move; next character,
however, is correctly placed taking account of SPACE. Only there was now visual
feedback that SPACE was pressed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. See description above.

Reopening. Try this sequence on Mozilla 1.1 Alpha (build ID 2002061104):
1.  Open a new page in composer.
2.  Type a single word on the first line - say "manoj" followed by ENTER.
3.  Insert a horizontal line at current cursor location via Insert menu.
4.  You are on line number 3. Now type a word followed by SPACE. Cursor doesn't
move when you type SPACE. But when you type next character, SPACE is
appropriately inserted.

Note that this bug DOES NOT repeat if you do not execute Steps 2 & 3 on the new
document. I.e., if you directly begin at #4 in a new doc, SPACE key does indeed
insert a space as soon as you type the key!

Reporter, your build is over a month old, could you try a newer build? Thanks.
