I know how I deal with this in the formatter used by Geppetto - but it
is a new/different formatter. There I make a distinction between
explicit and implied white space and allow the implementor to treat an
explicit whitespace as if it was implied. It is otherwise difficult to
handle non-breaking spaces that are part of the grammar.
Don't remember if a similar concepts is available in the old/current
formatter.
The formatter I wrote for cloudsmith / geppetto is generic, so if you do
not find another solution, you may want to try using it instead (it is
not a plug-and-play replacement though as rules are expressed a
different way).
