When pasting a tab, sometimes a tab is entered, sometimes 4 spaces. Usually 4 spaces are added in place of a tab unless the previous character was a CR/LF. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Copy a tab character from Notepad or some text editor. 2. Paste the tab character into a textarea 2 times. Actual Results: Instead of getting 2 tab characters, there will be a tab, then 4 spaces. Expected Results: 2 tab characters are expected.
