Description Daniel Hahler 2009-04-14 23:30:11 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

TESTCASE:
1. Open KMail composer ("New message")
2. Focus the body part
3. Type " foo bar" (leading space)
4. Go to the beginning of the line
5. Press Ctrl-Del

Expected result:
" foo" gets deleted, leaving "bar"

Actual result:
Nothing happens.

I've thought that I've seen this with other (KDE) apps, but e.g. KRunner and Kate behave sane.
Also, Ctrl-Del works e.g. in KMail's subject field or the message list search bar.

Yes, it's related at least.

Thanks.
