Safari and Chrome both share this issue. Basically if you copy and paste data
from a textarea that has been tab delimited, it fails to format properly in a
spreadsheet like Excel. It appears the tabs get changed to spaces.

You can see the behavior while using this site: http://www.batchgeocode.com
(copy and paste from the first field)

IE and Firefox don't have this problem. I have noticed this has been an issue
for quite some time.
