This test seems bogus to me -- how do you know what the font will draw U+000B as?

A better test would be something like comparing these two calls:

   ctx.fillText("E \x0b E", ...
   ctx.fillText("E E", ...

...to see if the two spaces collapse into one.

There should probably also be a separate test that checks the text in:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#white-space-processing

...saying that control characters in general should be ignored...
