To test: unwanted extra spaces in pasted content

[thibaudcolas]

From a user on the Wagtail Slack,

When doing a copy/paste of list items from MS Word to Draftail, I noticed a string of six blank spaces (” “) inserted into some list items. Is this a Draftail thing? A Word thing? I’m not used to copying and pasting from Word to a richtext editor.

• OS X 10.14.6
• MS Word for Mac 16.16.21 (200413)
• Chrome 81.0.4044.138, also on Firefox Quantum 68.9.0 ESR.
• Wagtail 2.8.2

I don’t currently have a copy of Word for Mac so haven’t tested this yet to identify what might be causing this, and whether the processing could be improved.
