CEd is full of these kinds of 'features'! Here are my favourites:

o) There can be text beyond the 1024th column, but your cursor isn't allowed
   to go there...
o) Replace a string with nothing and you can't undo the replace.
o) Go to column 761, push cursor-right and you get to column 1024!
o) Change-Case-Word function stores every converted character as a separate
   undo step.
o) Word-Wrap creates two undo steps for each wrap.
o) Load a large text, grab the slider and pull it quickly to the bottom and
   back up again. Often the display stays at the bottom.
o) Go to the end of a long line and move the cursor. It moves horribly
   slow even on an A3000.
o) Load a file consisting of only one (very) long line and the display will
   say you've got several lines of text.

Ain't it nice to have such a feature-filled editor? ;-)
