Section Compiler: Odd auto-correct in title field

[twinkietoes-on]

User types "Chapter VII: The Val sanz Retor" into the title field.
The code auto corrects it, removing the space between "The" and "Val".
It only occurs when there is a word after "Val". Capitalization doesn't matter.

1. the val: works fine, the space stays
2. the val with any word after: space vanishes
3. the vall or vale with any word after: space stays
4. a val with words: the space stays

"Looking this up in javascript, it appears that theval means the value. So it appears that perhaps the coding in the section compiler is interpreting "the val" to be a mistype of "theval" and doing an autocorrect."

EDIT: It appears to autocorrect and remove the space with the first word being any word that ends in E, not just "The".

Low priority; it's rare for that exact letter combination to occur in section titles.
