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.

No no, you misunderstood me, it's not about click position vs. cursor position, for me it's all OK (even more, better than pasting at cursor position). No, what I'm talking about is clearly virtual-spaces-related: if you paste something with middle-click by clicking after the end of a line (at the right of the EOL), it was used to paste at the end of line. Now, it pastes at the exact click position, then it adds as much spaces as it needs from the former EOL to the click position. Just try to middle-click somewhere outside line bounds (even without data to paste), you'll see ;)
Yeah. I noticed the changed behaviour at work yesterday. That's a pretty annpying regression. However, this seems to be Scintilla related, i.e. Scite behaves the same. I'll file a bugreport next week unless someone else is faster than me.
