XXE's documentation about this save option[1] is quite clear: only characters "not supported by the encoding" are converted to an entity reference.
Then, why do I get Unicode character number xA0 converted to in a UTF-8 encoded document? xA0 is a supported character in UTF-8, isn't it. Easy workaround: I added a saveOptions/@charsSavedAsEntityRefs = false to my XXE config. This still converts xA0 to   but that's better for me than the entity ref.
