Since 3.0.0-rc.19 i cannot get this straight. Spaces before and after a value will be deleted automatically. Am i the only one or is it an bug? Is there otherwise a solution?

The values are in this example: waskamer, wasmachine, 49.6

So, sometimes its goed, sometimes its wrong. When typing a space, it will be deleted or it does stays but then an other space will disappear.

I have the same issue. It happens after and before a tag. Just go to your te text before or after a tag and insert 1 space. This solves the problem. Often it happens the first time despite adding a space. Adding a space afterwards solves the issue.
