This is a pretty big problem. I've had to stop using clone entirely because something like <span>the</span> <span>fish</span> becomes "thefish" after cloning.

I’m not able to reproduce this issue. test case
Changed April 19, 2011 10:06AM UTC by comment:7
Reproduced in 1.5.2
Conditions described by esprehn above
I believe that the normalization of whitespace here was done to combat an issue IE had with cloneNodes where we're instead consolidating text nodes.
Leaving this bug open in case anyone has suggestions regarding a potential fix we haven't looked at yet.
