Details

Place caret in a line of text (and there's a second line of text below it.)
Move caret with right arrow key until it reaches the end. It is correctly
located just after the last space in the line.
The next arrow key press moves it just past the first character on the next
line. It should move it to the beginning of the line (just before the first
character.) This is tricky since technically, this is not a change in location,
but it is what should happen in any word processor.
Similar error occures when arrowing left toward the beginning of a line:
When the caret is just after the first character in the line, the next left
arrow press places the caret at the end of the previous line. It should be
at the beginning of the current line, just before the first character.

Not going to pay that much attention to this right now.  Its all comming
together.  the lineup/linedown and drag selection around lines all comes to this
problem of knowing when we jumped a line. This will be addressed next milestone.
