           Summary: Join lines removes trailing space, joins words

        ReportedBy: jon.roland the-spa com

I believe this has been previous reported as bugs 61566, 62556, and 69401, but 
the latter two were designated duplicates of the first, that that was marked 
fixed. It has not been fixed.

It makes no difference if dynamic word wrap or static word wrap is turned on or 
off. Need to make sure that lines, when joined, always insert a space between, 
unless there is already a space.

In Kate type in enough words to wrap, then make the window more narrow, to 
cause re-wrap, then split a line with a RETURN, leaving a trailing space, move 
cursor to upper line, then hit "Rejoin lines". The trailing space is lost, 
causing words to be improperly joined together.

This problem affects Quanta+, which uses Kate, causing HTML errors. The 
solution should be tested in combination with Quanta+ to make sure the bug does 
not appear in the editor of either, with the default settings.
