I'm not sure if this is worthy of its own bug report, but white space is also collapsed when copying text from a block element with `white-space: pre` styling. Interestingly, I cannot reproduce on elements that are normally inline.
Are there any plans to actually fix this, or is it just going to be broken forever?
Here's a better example of the bug: http://12me21.github.io/firefoxbug/ It affects any element, not just div.
