I've not seen that. Do you mean a textarea line which is soft-wrapped to a
line out of sight below the visible display? I've not seen that here.

So if you move the caret with cursor-right key, it doesn't reach the end
of the displayed text?

The last character on a soft-wrapped line is a space, but you can't put
the caret to the right of it, a caret after the space is on the start of
the next line.

This is concerning. I'll have a look.
