Screenshot showing where the letters are cut off

Someone posted a new bug (bug 351380) yesterday which is a duplicate of
this one, but it made it (in my opinion) more clear where the cutting
off of the characters happens.

It was already mentioned that following a wide character, from the cursor on the rest is drawn correctly again, but this also happens on any other color change (and I could imagine maybe bold/underlined too, but I didn't check).
To show this, I expanded the test case from that bug and made a screenshot of it.
As you can see, the last misaligned character is always cut off when the color changes.
If you print only the text in red, it is cut off at the end of the line; if you don't change the color, you don't see any cut off, but if you just add one "red" space after the text, it will cut off the last character again.
This also happens when you select part of the line (presumably the fg/bg colors are just inverted for that part) or put the cursor in the line (but that isn't shown in the screenshot).
You can also see this happening in the input lines due to my syntax highlighting.

Tested with konsole 15.08.0
