If you try to use normal X windows pasting (with the middle mouse button) to cut and paste some words in a textarea, and you try to paste it into the middle of a block of text, you get a magic newline automatically appended. This is counter to NS4 behaviour, and normal expected X11 behaviour. I'll attach a test case. (fwiw, Redhat 6.2, stock X server)
Seems like bug 57791
Ah - I didn't spot that one (I was looking for textarea bugs). Note that the bug is slightly different - selecting _anything_ from a textarea will insert the newline at the end, on a paste.
