Hey,
Interesting stuff indeed! But there's a "major" (small, but I use it often) change that can (is, for me) be very annoying: middle-click somewhere /always/ places the cursor on the click position, even if virtual spaces are disabled. Why is this a big deal? because when pasting with the mouse (X-style), the pasted chunk is placed exactly where the mouse where at the click rather than at the start of the line - well, virtual space.
Besides the fact that you don't like the behaviour, I'm pretty sure this has been the behaviour for a quite some time. To verify, I just tried an old 0.17 build and it behaves the same. So, I think this is at least no new bug/regression of the Scintilla update.
I think to remember we changed this some time in the past from the behaviour you want and the current one. Changing it back probably would cause new bug reports of those users who like the current behaviour :). So, as often, the solution seems to be a new preference. Still, I might be wrong. I'll have a closer look tomorrow and will try to find the corresponding bug report (I think to remember there was one).
PS: if I should have reported this through the bugtracker, please tell me so I could do so last time :)
No worries, posting bugs here on the list is fully ok.
