Same result here. Linebreak and wrapmargin=0 gives no hard breaks. 
Wrapmargin set to a nonzero value gives hard breaks.

But the original problem persists even with wrapmargin=0: The cursor 
behavior in insert mode is «strange» when moving to the next line.  The 
cursor moves to the next line while the last word stays on the previous 
line. If <space> is the next character i type, the last word on the 
previous line jumps to the next line.
