Hello Gordon,

Thank you for reporting the bug.
Unfortunately without clear steps to reproduce it, we cannot track down the origin of the problem.
Please provide a clearer set of step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the problem.
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the steps are provided

This is something I have noticed for awhile. It often manifests as extra spaces at the end of a sentence. While not a deal breaker, it is a nuisance.

How to reproduce: easy, just try to type a few words (try 100) then highlight the entire paragraph. Notice how extra space is highlighted at the end.

I usually open .docx files with writer, however I don't think this is related to the bug.

Btw I am on Linux so this bug is likely platform agnostic
