Anyway, I'll just re-post my patch here since it might have gone unnoticed.
I know that the cure I suggest isn't perfect, but as far as I can see it
works. The problem seems quite bad so it seems much better having this patch
rather than leaving it as it is.
The discussion was here:

Are you familiar with "git blame" ? Using git blame, you can see the
commit of each line of code in a file. For example, since you're not
sure why that code is there, before you remove it you should look at why
it was introduced.
git blame src/CutAndPaste.cpp
shows that one relevant commit is aaf4cf6f9. It references:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/3225
Perhaps that provides some useful information (I don't know though).
Thanks a lot. That is quite helpful I think. Actually, looking at the
code again it is really this part that might lead to trouble.
0a6ff99f2 src/CutAndPaste.cpp (Richard Heck 2014-03-29
18:52:36 -0400 892) &&
text->paragraphs()[begpit].stripLeadingSpaces(bp.track_changes))
So the relevant commit is aaf4cf6f9. How do I go about to see whether
this references some ticket?
