What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Load a grid which includes whitespace in a column.
2. From the column header, select Edit Cells -> Common Transforms ->
   Collapse whitespace.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Contiguous blocks of whitespace should be collapsed to a single space.
This does not occur.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

SVN HEAD on OSX.

Please provide any additional information below.

The following Jython expression collapsed whitespace correctly:
import re
return re.sub(r'\s+',' ',value)
