I think the issue here is whether we want to "render" the text, or
whether we want to show the file's content to the user.
For text-rendering, any space-like thingy that Unicode says isn't
unbreakable would probably be fine, but for the other case, it can
be important for the user to see the difference between a normal space
and some other space and wrapping the line can hide the difference.
Maybe we can rely on a variable such as nobreak-char-display (where
there's a similar issue).
