Hi Hans, This is quite common practice in the TeX world. I have configured my text editor to highlight the utf-8 nbsp, and I use it largely in text mode. However, it is often my practice to still use the tilde in math mode, as its explicit presence is always there for a reason, in order to achieve some effect. So I am accustomed to interpreting the tilde in math mode in this way. The question as to whether or not this use within ConTeXt should be promoted/encouraged is another one. Let me simply suggest that many users simply copy equations from one source to another, and so it may be valuable to remain compatible with (La)TeX usage.
