For consistency with IE and Chrome, please say that CRLF, CR and LF each render
one line break. Please say that runs of spaces are *not* collapsed. Please say
that tabs move the next character to the next tab stop but at least by one
space.

Unfortunately, it seems the browsers don't agree on the tab size. Chrome has
the tab size of 4. IE has the tab size of 8. (Firefox would have the tab size
of 3 if you could observe it!)
