User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

Composer, when set to "Retain original source formatting", inserts spurious
newlines in the HTML source.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a Composer window. View HTML Source. It looks like:
---
<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1"><title></title></head><body><br>
</body></html>
---
2. Insert a space between<TITLE> and </TITLE>. Switch to Normal view, then
back to HTML Source. The source now looke like
---
<html><head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type">
<title> </title>
</head><body><br>
<br>
</body></html>
---
3. Now add a second space between <TITLE> and </TITLE>, switch to Normal view
and back to HTML Source view. The source now looks like
---
<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title> </title>
</head><body><br>
<br>
</body></html>
---
Actual Results:
See above
Expected Results:
Composer should not have performed *any* reformatting at all. Should have only
added the two spaces.
This is a simple contrived example. Normal editing will result in repeated
added newlines. The newlines tend to be grouped together, and sometimes include
a pair of space characters (0x20). I am currently using Mozilla 1.5, but have
seen this behavior for a long time (years). The problem can also be seen with
Mozilla 1.5 on Windows.

Sorry, I accidentally made this a duplicate of the wrong bug: bug 176866 is
itself a duplicate of bug 97278, which seems to be the root bug, and is still open.
