Comment (by iseulde):

 We can add a new `type` that counts characters, but includes spaces. The
 regular expression might need to be adjusted a bit if more characters need
 to be excludes (maybe tabs?). There are some other characters in `\s` that
 are not really spaces, but they wouldn't be used in WordPress.
