newline after single line comment returns cursor to column 1 [message #1797655]

I'm using Eclipse 3.3.0 and the latest stable release of PDT.

When you enter a single line comment and then press return/enter, the
cursor returns to the beginning of the next line, and not the column
position the text on the previous line started at, as it does with
non-comments.

i.e.
......$foo = 'bar';
......|
^ cursor here on return / enter

......// this is a comment
|
^ cursor here on return / enter

Is this by design or is it a bug? I don't recall this behaviour before I
upgraded from eclipse 3.2 but maybe I'm mistaken. Is there a way to force
it to behave?

Latest stable PDT release not working on eclipse 3.3 (it's too old). Latest stable PDT (6.2) works on eclipse 2018-09 (4.9),

Mentioned feature works fine.
