Adding Spaces / Tabs does not cause the line to break.

Reported by bhoyaran...@gmail.com, Dec 13 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.84 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open this Js Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/aniket_bhoyar/r85s092o/
2. Add Tab / Spaces in between any two words till the text moves to next line. The spaces are being added at the end but Chrome visually collapses it. It does not cause the line to break and move the spaces to the next line.

What is the expected behavior?
It should cause the line to break and move the additional spaces to the next line.

What went wrong?
The spaces are being added at the end but Chrome visually collapses it. It does not cause the line to break and move the spaces to the next line.

Did this work before? No 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

"Unable to reproduce the issue on the reported chrome version stable 63.0.3239.84 and on the latest canary 65.0.3294.0 using Windows 10, Ubuntu 14.04 and Mac 10.13.1 with the below mentioned steps.
1. Launched Chrome
2. Navigated to https://jsfiddle.net/aniket_bhoyar/r85s092o/
3. Added spaces and tabs between lines and words.
We observed that the lines and words moved forward and to the next line. Chrome collapse was not seen in the process. Attaching the screen cast of the same.

@Reporter: Could you please check the screen cast and let us know whether we have missed any steps in reproducing the issue. Please check the same by creating a new profile with out any apps, extensions and mention its behavior."

The issue is probably about the spaces themselves not being wrapped, but I see the same behavior in Firefox - the spaces extend past the right edge indefinitely.

You need to keep adding Tabs / Spaces in between any two words till the text moves to next line. 

Interpretation by 'woxxom' in Comment2 is correct: "The spaces extend past the right edge indefinitely."

Able to reproduce this issue on Mac 10.12.6, Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #63.0.3239.84 and latest canary #65.0.3298.3.
This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M50 old builds. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Thanks...!!

This is a known usability problem due to how line break works, across any applications such as Microsoft Word. Dup to issue 76113.
