Description Miloslav Metelka 2014-04-29 09:11:11 UTC 
Scenario:
1) Have an indented line of text that extends beyond editor copmonent's visible width.
2) Press End key. Editor scrolls to line's end.
3) Press Home key. Editor scrolls to first non-space character of the line. The editor's visible view is not scrolled to column zero since the editor only scrolls as necessary.
IMO it would be better if the editor's view would be scrolled to column zero since other lines might be less indented and the user currently does not see all the text of the other lines. It would improve user's orientation throughout the code.
