Comment (by nonverbla):

 so... I think I found a real work-around for this. I put this script after
 the tinymce script, using the 'after_wp_tiny_mce' action hook:
 {{{
 tinymce.on('AddEditor', function(event) {

   // stores the editor instance
   var editor = event.editor;

   // always do this when the editor looses focus
   editor.on('blur', function (event) {

     // get the contents, but get them raw! All other formats fail to
 return the   we are looking for
     var content = editor.getContent({format: "raw", no_events: 1});

     // now replace that sucker
     content = content.replace(/ /ig, ' ');

     //... and re-set the content
     editor.setContent( content, no_events: 1 );

   });

 });
 }}}
 Any thoughts on this approach?
