Created attachment 165005 [details] Maintain the advances of space characters
Fixed in <http://trac.webkit.org/r129176>.
This broke a test: http://build.webkit.org/results/Apple%20Lion%20Release%20WK1%20(Tests)/r129181%20(3827)/results.html
(In reply to comment #3) > This broke a test: > http://build.webkit.org/results/Apple%20Lion%20Release%20WK1%20(Tests)/r129181%20(3827)/results.html Thanks for noticing this. The original change included updated results for this test for current OS X, but failed to update the Lion results. I have since updated them.
This changed led to an inconsistency between the measurements in line breaking and the ones in RenderText::computePreferredLogicalWidths, which measures spaces separately from their surroundings. I am going to revert it for now.
Reverted in <http://trac.webkit.org/r129389>.
