If there is a trailing cr, then the result will end with a cr no matter WHICH lines end up in the filtered text. If there isn't, then the result will NOT contain the trailing cr. That cannot be the desired behavior. Anyway, I have submitted a QCC on it, but it's too low a level for anyone to worry about I suspect.

That doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

If you have a list in which the format is that every line including the last 
has a terminating return, then filter honours that format in the list it 
returns, regardless of which lines were in- or excluded.  If you have a list 
in which the format is returns delimiting between lines, rather than 
terminating each line, then filter honours that.

I'd read it as a feature.
