The question what you call bug here? 
The layout, or the displayed spaces, or the cursor?

The layout / visible space was there even before my commit, i just tested it
with 7.0.0.0 alpha... 
My commit only allowed the cursor to be displayed in its real position... if
you chek it, you could move the cursor into the spaces.. it just not displayed
as if in the spaces

Important note:
I dont know why new document, have different layout as the old document.. BUT i
suppose it for compatibility reasons... maybe long ago it was different, and
now we dont want to break their documents.

Anyway i burned too much time on explaining this ticket...
I already said why it is like this, what makes it complex, what options i see
to make it better, and what changes could be dangerous in my opinion.
