As indicated earlier, your patch did not do the right thing when
using Undo and Redo.  Attached reworked version of your change
does work correctly with Undo and Redo.

If you could test the patch, that would be nice.  It is against
current git, but applies without fuzz to 2.7.4 and most likely
to other recent nanos as well.

Another method is: to type an extra blank followed by <Left>
and then press <Enter>.
