Thread is at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback&oldid=563553593#Consecutive_spaces - I can't explain it any better than the user has :).
Comment 1 Robert Rohde 2013-07-10 03:55:13 UTC
This was reported as an enhancement, but because it causes content (i.e. consecutive spaces) to display and behave differently in the edit window than in the view window, I think it is more appropriate to regard it as a bug.  Accordingly, I am upgrading this from "enhancement" to "minor".

This is going to be a pain to get the user interaction pattern right.
