We're using a standard JTextPane in our application and loading it with a
DefaultStyledDocument. We've noticed that by default, the curser always
seems to be ahead of the currently set attributes by one...reading the
attributes ahead of itself instead of the attributes just set.

The problem occurs when you've changed an attribute and then hit return. The
previous or default attribute seems to be restored after the return
character. I don't want to use paragraph attributes because I want
to be able to change each characters attribute(s) in any given line of
the document.

To reproduce the problem, save the attached test case. Then run 'javac
Formatter.java' and 'java Formatter'. This should bring up a window
labeled "Mini Text Editor". Start typing in the JTextPane. Then change
the Font size. You should now be typing in a different size font. Next
hit the return key before you hit the end of the line and continue typing.
You will notice you are returned to the original font size.

This problem has been reproduced on Windows NT with JDK 1.2.2_001, Windows 98
with JDK 1.2.2_005, and on Solaris 8 with JDK 1.2.2_05.
