When clustering values which contain duplicate whitespace characters, these characters are not clearly shown in the clustering dialog, giving the impression that we are clustering identical values.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. First, import the following file (as a lines-based or CSV file for instance):
foo
b ar
b  ar
b   ar
  1. Then, open the clustering dialog on that column.

Current Results

All options look the same:
