Hi everyone and especially Matthias,

When someone translates documentation to French with kbabel, he/she has a 
very irritating problem:

French tweaked grammar rules impone to translate ":" to "&nsbp;:". Same for 
";", "?" and "!" that get translated to "&nbsp;;", "&nbsp;?" and "&nbsp;!". 

Example:

msgid "He told me: Man, this is warm!"
msgstr "Il m'a dit&nbsp;: qu'est-ce que c'est chaud&nbsp;!"

But then kbabel determines that the number of &'s is not the same in English 
and in French.

Would it be possible to exclude &nbsp; from the accelerators/entities checks?
