Subject: bug#1549: 23.0.60; Problem with word wrap plus cua mode
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2008 11:37:37 GMT

start with "emacs -Q"

select from the menu:
Options -> "C-x/C-c/C-v Cut and Paste (CUA)"
then also select
Options -> "Line Wrapping in this Buffer" -> "Word Wrap (Visual Line Mode)"

now go into a non-empty line in the *scratch* buffer and press S-end.
Expected behaviour: obtain active region to end of line and move point to 
end of line.
Actual behaviour: point is only moved to end of line, but no region 
is highlighted. 

The bug seems to be related to the combination of cua-mode and 
visual-line-mode, since for example after switching off 
"C-x/C-c/C-v Cut and Paste (CUA)" in the option menu S-end works as 
expected.
