Hi Eicke

I wouldn't say it is a bug. If lines are wrapped, no space at all is
displayed. If it had to be displayed, line wrap positions may change
because of that, which is not necessarily desired.
If a user puts two or more spaces to an end of a line he cannot see his mistake. But that is the only sense of that visualization. If the user adds text before this invisible space mistake the spaces slide into the row and become visible _in the document_. The problem is, that the user has - with the current configuration of space display - needs to counter check the whole document for such mistakes each time he inserts text in the middle or at the beginning of their document.

Otherwise the spaces
had to be displayed overwriting the margin.

So what - they are invisible in the printed or clean version. The way the document looks with the invisible characters turned on is of secondary importance as you will always send it printed out or as pdf or in any other clean version. The editor in text processing software is a tool for editing not for viewing.
