space-end on inline throws off formatting in pdf
I wanted to start a block with a couple of inlines so that I could put a
text-decoration attribute (=underline) on them. And I wanted to have some
space after each inline that the text-decoration didn't apply to. So I put a
space-end attribute on each inline. (see attached FO file)
All of this worked just fine. But then I noticed that the space-end
attributes throw off the formatting of the first line of the block.
Note that the block has text-align="justify". This makes the problem more
noticeable, but the problem does not go away without it.
So, I have two questions:
1. Is this a bug, or am I just lucky it works as well as it does?
2. Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to achieve?

Leader! Boy, I would never have thought of that. Thank you.

This looks like a bug. Would you mind creating a bug report on FOP’s
bugzilla, attaching your sample file?

Thanks!
Meanwhile, you can use fo:leader instead of specifying space-end on the
inlines:
<inline text-decoration="underline">Section 1.</inline><leader leader-length="2em"/>
<inline text-decoration="underline">Members.</inline><leader leader-length="1em"/>

I forgot to say that I'm using 0.95, not Trunk.
