List elements deleted if lines of HTML have leading whitespace

[aberwristwatch]

The formatHTML function in quill.htmlEditButton.js is doing a good job of beautifying the raw HTML.
However for me when there is a list in the editor contents the leading whitespace before the <li> tag is causing the editor to lose the list when the OK button is clicked.

A solution that works for me is to remove newlines and trim each of the lines before joining them back together.
So I changed this
const noNewlines = textArea.value.replace(/\r?\n/g, ''); quill.container.querySelector(".ql-editor").innerHTML = noNewlines;

with this

const output = textArea.value.split(/\r?\n/g).map(el => el.trim()); quill.container.querySelector(".ql-editor").innerHTML = output.join('');
