problem using backspace / inserting characters in pre-filled multiline f

L.S.

A multi-line field with O_AUTOSKIP, O_STATIC and O_NULLOK off, will normally 
wordwrap contents that is typed into it. Then, using backspace, one is able 
to delete all content in the field.

However, setting the field contents through code while not paying attention to 
word-wrapping will often cause a row to end with a character instead of a 
space. 

When this happens, using backspace on say the second row will only delete 
characters up untill the first column of the second row, i.e. the cursor will 
*not* wrap to the end of the first row. Also, inserting characters on the 
first row simply won't work anymore.

Is this known behaviour?
