Just a quick update on this. I've begun work on it, about 1/3 through I'd say. I'm working on a branch which I will push when it's ready (hopefully next week).
I realized that it's not a good idea to eliminate WPXString altogether as the functionality for explicitly inserting spaces is really useful for ODT and HTML filters. Basically, these documents ignore all but one consecutive unicode space: if you want this, you are expected to define them explicitly (using a text:s or element). So what I'm doing instead is making WPXString an internal-only API and moving the handling of spaces to libwpd proper. Now, if there is more than one consecutive space in a given piece of text, libwpd will tell you about the remaining ones with an insertSpace() callback. This centralizes a somewhat-complicated piece of logic in one place, which seems like a win to me.
