No, it's just what the action routine forward_word() triggered
with Ctrl+RightArrow does.

Looking in the online help, finding
forward_word( ["tail"] ["nobell"] )
Moves the cursor to the beginning of the next word.
Word delimiters are user-settable, and defined by
the X resource wordDelimiters. If the "tail"
argument is supplied the cursor will be moved to the
end of the current word or the end of the next word,
if the cursor is between words.
and concluding to re-bind Ctrl+RightArrow to forward_word("tail").

No, \n is always a word delimiter - you can't change this with a user
setting.
