- Non-breaking spaces: non-breaking space ( ) is not removed like normal spaces. It might remain in the resulting text.
- Intentional empty lines: in some formats (Markdown, poetry), empty lines have meaning. Verify before removing them.
- Tab vs spaces: tabs may look like multiple spaces but are a single character. Decide whether to convert tabs to spaces before cleaning.
