I am not sure I understand your repro steps.

However, you have to be careful writing <some text> because this is interpreted as an html tag.
You should escape it \<some text\>

I can reproduce and I agree that comment untoggle should remove the extra spaces to produce equivalent effect with ⌘Z.

The <some text> was just a placeholder for any text. The <> are not part of the mandatory steps to reproduce.

@blue_emperor thanks for clarifying with screenshots.
