--- Comment #2 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
See bug 149254 asking for this when using the mouse but bug 149308 to exclude
tabs. And maybe many other too.

In fact, starting a selection at the beginning of a word you likely want to
remove the trailing space to avoid duplication/missing white separation on
cut/paste. And for convenience we continue direct formatting, meaning the white
space needs to be included; admittedly it's not needed for a selection within
existing text. If we introduce some smart algorithm to conditionally
add/suppress the trailing white space it does not justify the effort and likely
introduces unwanted corner cases.

I recommend to not change the behavior.
