Thank you for your reply. Although you did start with a "no" it still
sounds to me as if the report doesn't reach the right people. Could you
clarify the process of how it will do that anyway?

The reason I want to know of course being that if it doesn't, that fact
will greatly impact my willingness to report bugs in the future. From
what you said I feel that they won't be looked at, nor forwarded, which
means there's no point for me to report them.

Title:
  Word-wrap breaks in windows with small width

Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When making a window as narrow as possible, I noticed that word-wrap
  stopped wrapping words before I was done shrinking the window
  (attached screenshots 1 and 2).

  By chance I stumbled upon the cause: I tried disabling the sidebar in
  settings, but accidentally disabled the status bar instead, and
  suddenly the word-wrap worked immediately:

  The status bar minimum width is clamping text area/word-wrap width to
  a larger value than the editor area's actual width. (screenshot 3)

  I expect the status bar to never interfere with, or cause, the need
  for horizontal scrolling -- especially when word-wrap exists for the
  sole purpose of removing horizontal scrolling. I expect the status bar
  to make due with whatever size it is given.

  (That I tried to find the sidebar settings in 1. the application menu,
  and 2. the settings panel before finally finding it in 3. an
  inconspicuous accessory menu in the window's title bar speaks loads
  about the current design, but is, of course, a separate issue that I
  don't know how to even begin to address)
