Summary0000305: Signs no longer react to spaces nor other non-letter characters
Description

Until the CE it was possible to input spaces into a sign's text to control the distribution of the characters as well as include fully formatted text (Enters and Tabs) through copy and paste, which would be displayed correctly.

Currently spaces as well as other non-letter characters are just ignored and there are no ways of influencing the text's positioning other than just changing size.

If possible, it would be great if this functionlaity would be brought back as well as possibly enhanced in such a way that the Tabs and Enters could be directly inserted and spaced before the text would also be recognized. While this is hardly practical for vanilla signs, it makes a lot of difference with modded signs, which currently are up to 4x4 and can f.e. hold whole instructions or rule sets.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Place a sign
  2. Enter two letters separated by a few spaces: "F F"
  3. Observe no spaces being put onto the sign beyond the first one
  4. Go to pre-CE and try the same thing

I am able to reproduce this behavior following the steps, in 0.7.2.8CBFD2, I am able to place multiple spaces and have them shown, however in 0.7.3.33D4BB, it does not show the multiple spaces.

The issue with consecutive spaces has been fixed.
However, please open a feature request/enhancement for the additional control character support (newlines). I took a brief look at it, and it was quite a bit more work than expected. The control being used is only a single line control, and has no concept of multi-lines (drawing, cursor, etc). Changing it to a multi-line control wasn't trivial, so it couldn't be done with this issue.
