Hi!

Maybe show the rationale for changing 1: and 2:. Probably even with knowing those, I'd still want the previous behavior back.

If you are at the beginning of a long line, and you want to move to the next line (maybe to insert something), this "change"  is a nightmare.

To be more explicit in my last email, since this is a "bug report". What
exactly are you wanting changed to "close" the bug?
