Thanks for reporting this and providing a clear test case. I've tried it 
out and it seems to be a bug, specific to Windows. I was a bit surprised 
as I'm fairly sure this used to work.

If you're able, please could you file this on the bug tracker and attach 
your example as a test case. This will be a MUSTFIX for 2.0.

By the way, if you're using RICH and RICH2 for formatting, you might see 
if RichTextCtrl works better for you. TextCtrl + RICH2 has some 
cross-platform quirks, although it will be better for accessibility I guess.

thanks
