Checkboxes in issues break because of non breaking space between box and text

i encountered an issue where you regularily type a non breaking space behind the "- [ ]" which causes the conversion into a proper checkbox to fail.

This happens because on mac when you type the "]" you use the combination "alt+6" and after that you press space, but if you do this quickly you tend to press "alt+space" by accident which produces a non-breaking-space.

wouldn't it make sense to allow/handle this issue on the conversion side? so, that not only a regular space, but a non-breaking-space can be between the checkbox?

example without non-breaking-space:

  • test

example with non-breaking-space:

  • [ ] test
