You mean, in the ODF spec? I did mark that as a dependent. Also adding Regina
to the CC list.

That's a bit like saying it's more familiar to manually boldface/italicize text
rather define a character style for emphasis... if you have dozens of
occurrences of the CS in your document, you don't want to start typing up
NBSPs. Or delete them if you've changed your mind. And you you may not want
them when you export the text.

Also - many users don't even know about Ctrl+Shift+Space and NBSPs. Actually,
maybe even _most_ users.


> Ultimately the use case is a bit far-fetched, IMO.

Why would you say that? Character styles for:

* Titles of books/papers
* References to legal case names (which contain hyphens, spaces etc.)

are common when writing academic documents or legal briefs. And it is not
far-fetched for the user to want those not to break across lines.
