      You can see in the page source, that the whitespace does exist, but since it is not rendered as a pre-format block, the spacing is ignored by the browser. Also note, that I've had to manually escape the last {noformat} block in the above page source so that it will render correctly.

      Wiki Markup when cut and pasted

      Please note I've had to create a screen shot here, as the markup contains a {noformat} block.

      Example page on EAC: Noformat square brackets in title escape test
      Example page on CAC: Noformat square brackets in title escape test

      This report uses the same Confluence page for demonstration as per CONF-14185.
