Changes also incorporate general revisions that are slowly being rolled out across all pages.

Tip: In Blink/Gecko browsers this is just 1 tab key press away from the text area. Two tabs takes you to the control to input characters as escapes/code points.

The new icon collapses spaces while retaining the line breaks.
