it is <div dir=rtl>abc def ghi jkl mn <div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div>opq rst uvw xyz</div>

Let's say it is visually display as:
abc def
ghi jkl
     mn


opq rst
....


Ideally, when cursor is at mn| and press ctrl(alt)-left-arrow, cursor should move to rst|.
But in current algorithm, it founds a word break at |mn and returned it.

It is  not a regression introduced in this patch. The expectation changed (if you look at id="ml_8" in move-by-word-visually-multi-line.html) based on that we'd want word break stops at end of text only, not end of line.

It is not ideal, but I think it is not that a big deal either.
