http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/46914 was not supposed to change behavior, but it definitely did.


>From looking of different reports of this problem, it seems to frequently happen with tab characters.  I'm attaching an example that shows the problem.  Before r46914, when you hit enter after the tab character and start typing, the new text doesn't get the "white-space: pre" style, but after that change, it does.

To fix Mail, if we changed the tab style to use "pre-wrap", that would fix this problem, but I'd like to figure out what went wrong in r46914, and whether we can go back to the old behavior.
