I was editing a page on http://extranet.atlassian.com/x/C4LHHQ
and wanted to create a simple bulleted list :

• easy -> respond immediately
• medium -> research required, put in Triage
• urgent -> notify dev guys

I manually entered the empty spaces between each '->' to make sure that the subtitles are in an ordered column, under each other.

However, wiki markup completely ignores the white spaces entered between words. Hence you can't manually tab to a specific location on a page, kind of annoying.

The RT editor is smarter and inserts '  for each blank space.

• easy      -> respond immediately
• medium -> research required, put in Triage
• urgent   -> notify dev guys |

Thus producing the accurate result.
