SBA->timi_openoffice: The "treat equally as normal spaces" can not be "the same
code" as "ignore".
SBA->FME: I regard this one as a defect, too (=> changes issue type type).
Similar to the discussion of custom hyphens, the non-breaking spaces need some
attention. A non-breaking space must be treated like a normal space because...
(A) MS Word treats them equally to normal spaces in Find&Replace (=> expectation
of "refined" users :-)
(B) In normal document view or in a printout they can not be distinguished by
the user.
SBA->FME: Once we're at this, we must take the Complex Text formatting aid signs
into account, too. (To see them all in the Insert-Formatting Mark sub menu,
enable CTL support in Tools-Options-Language setting-Languages first)
In total, there is...
(1) Non-breaking space
(2) Non-breaking hyphen
(3) Optional hyphen
(4) No-width optional break
(5) No-width no break
(6) Right-to-left mark
(7) Left-to-right mark
So far, (3) is solved.
I am aware that we can not handle all this without a specification.
Nevertheless, this is a defect.
