Fixed in git, 43f35fc.

(The subbug with M-- and M-+ I will leave as is for now.)

A secondary bug is that, after typing the twelve extra <Right>s that make the cursor go beyond the real end of the line and moves it to the next line, the screen scrolls too much.  It scrolls three lines, where two would have been enough to bring the last line of the file into view.  This doesn't happen when using <Ctrl+Right> instead of <Right>.

Borrowed almost completely from bug 47710, with one change: the problem occurs with Right instead of Ctrl-Right.

"To reproduce, run 'for x in $(seq 20); do echo -n "xx "; done >exes', then run 'stty cols 50 && src/nano --ignore --soft --smooth --nowrap exes'. Then type <Enter> until the second line with exes disappears from view.

Then start typing Right. When you've reached the last pair of exes on the current line, another Right does not scroll the rest of the line into view, but the cursor sits as if stuck on the second x of the pair. When you keep typing Right, ultimately the invisible real cursor jumps off the end of the line and the rest of the line and the subsequent blank line scroll into view."
