Synopsis: gtranslator copy spaces as points
Bugzilla-Product: gtranslator
Bugzilla-Component: Generally bug'd
Bugzilla-Version: unspecified
Description:
Description of Problem:

In gtranslator you  may set to use a special character (I think it's a
dot) in stead of a space. However, if I copy some of that text and then
paste it again, those special spaces are copied as plain dots. This is a
dangerous thing. The pasted text should show the spaces as dots, but in
the actual po file, they should be spaces, not dots.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Copy some text with spaces shown as dots
2. Paste it in the translated text area
3. Save the file, compile it as a mo, and then look at the text in the
application's widget.

Actual Results:
Anoying dots appers in translated strings.

Expected Results:
Those dots should have been spaces.

How often does this happen?
Every time.
