--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Confirmed on Windows 10 Home 64-bit en-US with
Version: 6.2.4.2 (x64)
Build ID: 2412653d852ce75f65fbfa83fb7e7b669a126d64
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

STR

1. New Writer document
2. Page properties, set left & right margins to 3" reduce to a narrow column
3. change font for Paragraph to Liberation Mono
4. enter sequence of spaces to fill to the reduced margins (24 on US 8.5x11 in
page)
5. notice the count of characters in the status bar shows 24
6. keep entering spaces, count goes up but text cursor remains at right margin
7. back space will reduce the count of characters, untill cursor starts moving
left into paragraph again. Enter additional spaces, text cursor again stops a
right margin.
8. save file to Flat XML .fodt
9. open the .fodt in a text editor

Examine the <text:p> and note that the text spans are <text:s text:c "25"> or
more, so this looks to be correct ODF 1.2 recording of spaces. And, they are
legitimate Unicode U+0020 (not assigned any other glyph with an <Alt>+X toggle)

However with a second paragraph, placed after the first, text cursor movement
will pass from the right margin of the first directly to the left margin start
of the next paragraph. Ignoring the text span's <text:s text:c> "spaces" beyond
the end of the margin.

Not clear it is incorrect (from ODF perspective) but it is weird UX.

@Regina?
