Screenshot explaining issue with visualeditor

Hi
These are the steps:

*Create a preformatted multiline text, inserting a space before each line, in source mode.
*Open visualeditor, select the text inside the box (the preformatted text)
*Change text type to "paragraph"
*The text is badly converted, return characters appear on the line. If the text is saved the return characters are lost.
*This happens in other cases too, tab symbols are displayed sometimes.

Thank you.

The ↵ characters indicate that the newline is preserved as if you edit the page subsequently and convert the paragraph to preformatteed the line breaks return.
