[PIVOT-1005] TextPane Cut and Paste always add a trailing newline to the text

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Affects Version/s: 2.1, 2.0.5
• Component/s: wtk

Description

If you select some text in a TextPane and Cut it, then paste into another text editor you will see that the text has a trailing newline, regardless of whether the selected text included the end of line or not. Similarly, select some random text in another application and Paste into a TextPane and a new paragraph will always be entered, regardless of whether the original text had a newline or not.
This is due to PlainTextSerializer (used for all these operations) always creates a Document, which always has the text enclosed in a Paragraph (which implicitly contains a newline at the end).
Note: Copy does not have the same problem (any more).
