I just asked a "non-techie" and she thought that it _does_ include spaces, because she knows character counts mainly from character limits in forms or text messages, which usually do include spaces. I looked at Libre Office, and they have "Characters" and "Characters exlucing spaces", so they include them by default as well. Google docs has "Characters (with spaces)" and "Characters (no spaces)", so they obviously were undecided. I'd suggest we should go with the Google Docs labeling as it is unambiguous but not as long as the current labels.

@Thomas
Yes, "Readability" would work great.
I am also ok for  "Characters (with spaces)" and "Characters (no spaces)" - these are shorter equivalents to what we have now. 
PS: Interesting point about intuition changed among SMS users - I did not consider this change in recent years - this applies to some of our users.
