Details

If you have some html like: This is the first sentence.  This is the second sentence. then when it wraps it can do this: This is the first sentence. This is the second sentence. when it should do this: This is the first sentence. This is the second sentence. (this is when using style sheets - I don't know if this makes a difference)
Sorry, forgot to mention: Version: M11, WinNT SP4, x86

Updating to default Layout Assignee...kipp no longer with us :-(
Why are you re-reassing layout bugs? Do NOT touch layout bugs. The bugs are assigned to Kipp so they can stay neatly organized until we have a new owner for the block/inline code.
mass moving all Kipp's pre-beta bugs to M15. Nisheeth and I will prioritize these and selectively move high-priority bugs into M13 and M14.

moving all buster m15 bugs to m16.
Target Milestone: M15 → M16
Won't make beta2 if it stays on my list. Moving to M18.
Target Milestone: M16 → M18
This is related to 19265 and 14588. Don't know know if this should be marked a dup or dependent of any of those.
Here is the initial batch of layout [TEXT] bugs. I'll search for more today, but this should keep you busy for a while! Please review these for possible dogfood or nsbeta2 candidates, and assign your own priority and milestone for each. The current settings were relative to my bug list, and they might not make sense any more.

UAs may not break the line at   but since you have a space after the nbsp, it is allowed to break there. Marking INVALID.

The point was that the line breaks before the   when it should break where the space is, or (if the   won't fit on the line) at the next word break.

Resolution: INVALID → ---
Well, I tried it with today's build, and it was OK. Marking FIXED, since someone must have fixed it.
