**Note: this is fixed in the 0.29 of the CommonMark spec. Once that's released and https://github.com/gjtorikian/commonmarker/ is updated, we can pull in the latest version to get this feature.** ### Summary Multiple spaces in monospace blocks are collapsed. This kinda defeats the point of a monospace block. ### Steps to reproduce Write backtick, x, space, space, x, backtick, such as `x x` and observe that it's rendered with a single space instead of two. The same thing with five spaces looks the same: `x x` ### Example Project Not needed. ### What is the current *bug* behavior? A run of spaces in a monospace block is collapsed to one space. ### What is the expected *correct* behavior? The number of spaces preserved. ### Relevant logs and/or screenshots Literally this ticket.
