Anybody experiencing the flooding of html code with   instead of a normal space. I haven't nailed it down to specific use cases, but my experience is that the editor uses none breaking space every time , especially before new tags and at least in Safari.

Is this intentional? Can anybody elaborate on this? Or shall we dig into it?

It has always been my experience all wysiwyg editors suffer the same fate... more a product of the browser inteface and not the sripting.

I've run into this issue when just typed "word " without quotes, copied it and pasted it multiple times. The space got replaced with in every instance. Used Chrome 20 or so (updated it a bunch of times already)
