No, it doesn't. I still agree with that fix -- the overwhelming majority of 
characters should indeed be UTF-8 instead of unicode sequences.

This is about a very specific character, that is impossible to visually tell 
the difference on screen from ordinary space.

Technically, it might be that some of these lines in the properties files are 
reversals of JDK-8301991, but that's just basically coincidence.
