--- Comment #48 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tie...@documentfoundation.org> ---
The topic was on the agenda of the design meeting.
To summarize the comments:
+ we mimic MS Word that also allows spaces beyond margin
+ it's a controversial situation (which was the ticket)
and the use case is quite dubious (OTOH treating spaces as any other
character makes sense too)
+ many other applications keep the cursor at the line end
+ MS Word had in the past an option to wrap or not
Putting all together it sounds reasonable to add an option under Tools > Writer
> Compatibility and let the user decide whether spaces at the line end wrap or
not. Enabling the option breaks the layout for old documents and the
compatibility with MS Word but should be easy to switch on/off.
