Initial Comment:
<?php

$html = '<p><input type="submit" value="
submit " /></p>';

$tidy = tidy_parse_string($html);
$tidy->CleanRepair();
echo $tidy;

?>

outputs:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML
3.2//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<p><input type="submit" value=" submit "></p>
</body>
</html>´

(it removes the extra spaces inside the value attrivute of
the input tag)

This is often unavoidable though. Tidy does not know
whether those spaces are there by intent and whether the
user wants Tidy to repair the document or not. If we'd fix
this we would probably need to make it configurable and I'm
not sure this is really worth a new option.

Thinking in pratical terms, it doesn't seem correct to me. If
someone is repairing his documents, he/she doesn't expect
to change its apparence. The leading spaces are often used
to enlarge the buttons.

Yes, the value attribute is a CDATA attribute and the HTML
4.01 Recommendation explicitly allows implementations to
remove leading and trailing white space. It also notes that
use of such white space should be avoided. I don't really
see a reason to change this behavior.
