XeTeX is a TeX engine. Obviously, it is free to define its own input

I think (with respect) that "some Unicode code points outside the 7-bit range"
is a gross understatement. As far as I am aware, XeTeX permits a very
considerable
subset of Unicode (perhaps even all of it; I do not know) as input.
if we were discussing TeX, on what basis do you claim that
U+00A0 is invalid ? And if you assert that it is, /a priori/,
It's invalid if XeTeX says it is invalid, and I think XeTeX should say
it is invalid.
That is a very different statement, and as that is your
personal position, I respect it as such. Of course,
I disagree :-)
