non-breaking spaces in form submitted text fields

Summary
non-breaking spaces in form submitted text fields
Stephen Ryner Jr.

Version 4.0.4 (6531.21.10,
r55270
) Apologies if this is a dupe, but I can't find the exact bug. This started in the last week or so. A simple test is to use the Google search bar (not a form field) to search for a phrase, e.g. "looking for a song" which Google then turns into
http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=looking+for+a+song&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
Then edit the search phrase in the text field in the page, for example "looking for a song that I can sing" and click the search button. Google now shows the non-breakings spaces:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=safari&rls=en&q=looking+for+a+song%C2%A0that%C2%A0I%C2%A0can%C2%A0sing&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq
= The %C2%A0 or \0xA0 is causing all kinds of grief, for example in dailymile.com where Webkit nightly form submits wrap oddly (at - or —) or not at all. See for example

may be similar issue.
