Php Storm with "Strip trailing spaces on Save" set to "All" ignores line with cursor

Question

Having 2 lines with trailing spaces and cursor at the end of the 2nd one, on save action only trailing spaces from 1st line will be striped.

I mean, if I have this:

1st_line[space]
2nd_line[space][cursor]

after save action I will have

1st_line
2nd_line[space][cursor]

Is it possible to also strip the line with cursor?

(It can be a philosophical question - Is space in the 2nd line really trailing or not? Though there is cursor behind it)
