With soft wrapping turned on:

Currently the behaviour is that navigation keys follow the logical line.
I think the correct behaviour, such as found in word processors, is to
follow the visual line.

For example, in a long logical line spanning three visual lines,
pressing arrow-up near the end takes you to the previous logical line,
where the expeted behaviour is to go ony one visual line up.

    I agree. The core commands previousLine and nextLine have to take soft wrapping into account. Not sure how at the moment...

    This is fixed now. The core commands previousLine and nextLine have been redefined and the bindings thereto have been disabled.
    Changes committed to the repository (rev. 1347 and 1348).
