Like this :
blah |a blah
after a "delete" key :
blah |blah
So we maintain the invariant of no two spaces existing like that. As I
mentioned there's one special case I'm aware of and that's replace a
selected word with a paste.
alternatively we could just strip spaces on save/export too. But it's a
lot easier to accidentally create two-spaces rather than two-paragraphs,
so I'm not sure that's a good idea.
