Hi Peter 

I use the space of the line too, because it just looks better to me (like the ellipsis is a missing part of the text rather than a separate discrete character). Having said that, though, I should also add that I keep my lines fairly tightly spaced, so the full points of the ellipses don't end up with very large spaces between them. 

Cheers, Dominic
