His point was, that in the most common example you'd have:

WIDTH="123" HEIGHT="456"

So, with numbers quoted, they would be treated as string.
  

Yes, that's what I meant. To quote the HTML spec, 
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2

"In certain cases, authors may specify the value of an attribute without 
any quotation marks. The attribute value may only contain letters (a-z 
and A-Z), digits (0-9), hyphens (ASCII decimal 45), periods (ASCII 
decimal 46), underscores (ASCII decimal 95), and colons (ASCII decimal 
58). We recommend using quotation marks even when it is possible to 
eliminate them."

So the quotes aren't strictly required but are recommended.



I would prefer a slightly different way:

&nbsp; and &#1234; should be displayed in the same color (the numbers
in entities are actually parts of entities, and shouldn't be displayed
differently.

width=123 and width="123" should be displayed in the same color: as
numbers, because they are numbers, even if they are written in a
different manner.
  

That may be possible but will require a bit of re-arrangement of the 
code so that a number can be recognised inside a string.
