I don't recall anyone else mentioning this, but it seems to be a recurring problem for me. I update my FEX submissions as they develop, and I like to keep the descriptions relatively organized and well-detailed.
The problem is that the editor does not appear to support any sort of markup for formatting (bbcode, etc), and it tends to strip leading whitespace from the post. Tabs are impossible, and empty lines between paragraphs don't really work either. It doesn't do it every time, but I'll often post an update to find half of the paragraphs have been run together and there's no way to edit it without making another update.
Is there a workaround for this, or at least something better than using non-whitespace characters as padding?
EDIT: I have found that padding empty lines with spaces seems to help keep them from getting stripped, and almost any space character other than U0020 won't get stripped, but I guess I'm still hoping that there would be a workaround that didn't call for a bunch of unicode wrangling just to keep things from imploding.
