Build ID: 20130224042019

Steps to reproduce:

Tried to edit text with trailing spaces


Actual results:

The trailing spaces were removed


Expected results:

The trailing spaces should have been preserved, since there was an <a> element after it.  Removing the trailing space from the text removed the space between a plaintext word and the linked word that followed it.

Thank you for filing this!

I am duping it to the newer bug because it seems to contain a little more information ("preceding" and "changes do not actually have to be made") and a testcase.
