Hmm. No, not RTL. But I overlooked the the behavior of actually removing the
trailing blanks *of a paragraph*. The quote is wrong in use of word "line":
e.g., if in a paragraph you have a multi-space run somewhere in the middle, and
this space run is last in its line, then no matter how you select, centering
does not change it. And vice versa: if the spaces are last in a paragraph, you
don't need any selection - just have cursor inside the paragraph to drop the
trailing spaces.

I don't think that centering (formatting) should actually change content. If
needed, a separate function could be implemented ...
