gedit problem with long lines

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gedit
Hi,
I was editing a text file when the cursor began to behave strangely.
The file contained these lines:
CREATE TABLE people(
integer primary key,
name varchar(50),
age integer
)
When I put the cursor after the 'l' in 'people', the arrow key would
not move the cursor to the right. Instead it jumped to the next line.
Similarly, I could not add text at this position.
Viewing the file in a hex editor revealed a lot of spaces (284 to be
accurate) after the opening parenthesis. Probably I've added those
spaces without knowing it (resting my book "beginning Ruby" on the
space bar ^ ^). Still, I feel the editor should handle a few hundred
chars on a line without misbehaviour.
I attached a copy of the text file.
Thanks for developing and maintaining this simple but useful editor!
