Obvious, but not documented early OCS bug:

8362R6 Denise (ceramic, A1000): right horizontal display window masks sprites one 140 ns pixel later than bitplane data.

8362R8 Denise (most A500,2000): Sprite horizontal masking aligns with bitplane masking.

Tested on two A1000 PAL machines and 3 different 8362R6 chips.
It is not confirmed whether this behaviour also exists on 8362R5 (non-EHB) Denise chips.

Effect: games like Jim Power, which use sprites to form a parallax layer, display slight visual glitches on the right display border. But also on the workbench, the mouse pointer is visible for 1 additional horizontal pixel exceeding the display window.

@Toni: is this known to you? If not, then maybe doing additional tests would be in order to support this in emulation.
