Copying text from LC Script Editor

I’m noticing that with LiveCode 8, copying scripts from the Script Editor and pasting it into other applications on the Mac yields text that displays differently than pre-LC 8.

Pasting it into Apple Mail puts it as double-spaced. Copying it from Mail puts it back into the Script Editor as double spaced:

on mouseUp

doThis

thenDoThis

followedByThis

end mouseUp


Apple TextEdit is OK:

on mouseUp
   doThis
   thenDoThis
   followedByThis
end mouseUp

Pasting it into Tex-Edit Plus yields a single line with feed characters.

Is this worth making a fuss over?
