Describe the bug
Our card descriptions in one project are usually copied and pasted HTML-content. In editing mode they look fine, in view mode they are just one "BLOB" of text without breaks.
If our users want to find quickly the information they are looking for or want to mark and copy something, the often klick on "edit mode" and then everything is displayed fine. They (including myself) don't change any space or other character, but there is always fired an event notification for a changed card. This is displayed in the timeline and send by mail.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to card description
  2. Click on 'edit description'
  3. wait a couple of seconds until it says "saving"
  4. check your notifications/mails

Expected behavior
There shouldn't be a notification or timeline entry, when nothing is being changed.
