Option not to show read more link if body text is same as teaser

Read more link by default appears on every teaser view in D7, even when there is nothing more to read. This is bad for UX. The present module might incorporate an option (or default) to hide 'Read more' when there is no more to read.

This has been recognized as a problem for core, but curing it has proved difficult and it is not clear whether on when it will be fixed for D8, let alone back-ported to D7 : http://drupal.org/node/823380 , http://drupal.org/node/1300568

A sandbox project to cure the problem in contrib exists, is in use and appears to be stable http://drupal.org/sandbox/Monochrome/1088582. However the developer appears to have lost interest after it was controversially suggested that he was unlikely to be approved to give it a full release on the grounds that it distracted energy from fixing the same problem in core.

Perhaps that feature could be added to this module instead.
