Details

1. Open to the Enter Bug page at the above URL.
2. Go the text box labeled "Description" and begin typing.
3. Try typing a line like this one so that the line text wraps around to another
line.

Error- The line wrapping here does not work correctly.  This line has a space
and a soft return between the words "another" and "line".  The problem is that
the space character becomes the first character in the word line making the word
line appear indented rather than leaving it as a trailing space at the end of
the previous line.

Expected Behavior--In the browsers and wordprocessors I've used a
space/softreturn at the end of a line leaves the space on the previous line
making the text flush left on the following line so that it does not appear to
be indented.

Regression--If the user does not like having the word indented one space and
tries to delete it then the word "another" is brought done (flush left now) to
the next line but is treated as one word "anotherline" (no space) adding the
space between the words moves another back to the previous line, but leaves
"line" indented one space on its current line.
