Hello, Emacs.
C-M-o, on something like:
foo bar baz
^
point
will split the line into
foo bar
baz
, but will leave a trailing space on the first line. This is in
accordance with its documentation in emacs.info, but this peculiarity
isn't mentioned in the doc string.
I find this trailing space irritating, as I frequently have to remove it
by hand. What is the motivation for this trailing space, and do we
really want it?
