Browser Bug Check

Type a password into a password box (any web login will do) within your browser of choice.  Include spaces in the password.

With the cursor at the end of the starred password string, press Ctrl+Backspace.  Does the password only delete up to the space you typed?  If so, is that not an undesireable security feature?

IE 6 confirmed.

Maybe that’s why no spaces in most passwords…
