Partwise duplicates MCL-1922, but the problem described here is the underlaying problem
The launcher doesn't use the same formatting as Minecraft. One bug caused by this is MCL-1922, another one would be this:
Use this command
/tellraw @p {"text":"1.\t<--- In Minecraft this isn't a tab, but in the launcher it is"}This can cause some problems because the way Minecraft displays some text is then pretty different from how the launcher displays the text which makes it more difficult to find something specific in the launcher.

Why JavaScript problems? I think it is just a "logical" bug. Minecraft has some restrictions, for example that you can't paste in line breaks (which are actually a unicode character). The launcher hasn't those restrictions
Still an issue in the latest Beta, though the above command no longer works in 20w16a (however, it does still work in 1.12.2 and produces the bug).
Hi there!
To help investigation of the issue, please attach screenshots of the issue.
Also:
Does this issue still occurs to you on newest version of Launcher?
Doest the issue occur for both Microsoft Store Launcher(the new one) and Unified Launcher(the old one)?
Could you provide us with more in-depth repro steps?
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
Yes, still an issue! I'm unsure if it's an issue in the Microsoft Store launcher, but it is an issue in the Unified launcher. You can reproduce the issue with the following steps:
Launch Minecraft in version 1.12.2, with the game logs open
Run the following command, and notice that the tab does not show (as intended):
/tellraw @p {"text":"1.\t<--- In Minecraft this isn't a tab, but in the launcher it is"}Look in the launcher log
❌ The\tis shown as an indent, differently from what is shown in game
JavaScript problems? Or must be some other coding language.
