Subject: 23.1.50; Can't backspace indentions inserted by refill-mode
Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2009 13:58:56 -0800

If you have a buffer using refill-mode with indented text like

    Lorem [...text spanning to the fill column...]
    ipsum...

and the point is right before the `i', then pressing backspace has no
effect.  I.e., to edit "foo\n []bar" (where [] is the point) into
"\n foo[]bar", you can't just press DEL.

I can no longer reproduce this on Emacs 25.  Let me know if it is still
a problem, otherwise I will close this in a few weeks.
