Itīs not a bug, itīs a feature!

No, really, what exactly is the bug here? 
It seems the firmware behaves correctly as intended, just not the way
you want it to.
So, how would you like it to be changed? 
Stop output at the window edge, have a new fixed-width font, ... ?
If you want a new font, send me one I can use freely, but not GPLed
since the firmware is not GPLed.
