You mention in a later post that you do consider a space as a printable 
character.

No, I don't think of it as a "character" at all, when we are talking
about typeset output (as opposed to ASCII (or Unicode) input).  Clearly
it is a character on input, but unless it generates a glyph in the
output stream (which TeX does not, for normal spaces) then it is not
a character (/qua/ character) on output but rather a formatting
instruction not dissimilar to (say) end-of-line.
