Describe the bug

When using a TextField in Flet with capitalization=ft.TextCapitalization.WORDS, if the user types three consecutive spaces, the application crashes. Instead, macOS displays a system crash report for the Flet executable.

Code sample

Code

import flet as ft


def main(page: ft.Page):

    # Write 3 spaces in the TextField
    page.add(
        ft.TextField(
            autofocus=True,
            capitalization=ft.TextCapitalization.WORDS,
        ),
    )


ft.app(target=main)

To reproduce

1. Run the code.
2. Press the spacebar three times.
3. The application crashes, and macOS shows an error report.

Expected behavior

The application should not crash. Instead, it should allow multiple spaces without issues, or at least handle the input safely.
