I frequently complete eBay feedback 'comments' fields[0] with a variety of Unicode spaces and Firefox at least doesn't seem to collapse them.

[0] eBay insists on something being entered and when it was a routine transaction with a vendor I seldom have anything useful to say.




Not sure if you're a frequent eBayer, but the common behavior in that community is just "A+++++++++" with some arbitrary number of "+" indicating that everything went fine.


He's no doubt observed that and is using whitespace to rail against the ridiculousness of that convention.
