Confirming bug. Keyboard layout used on the machine is: fr oss (⇒ setxkbmap fr oss).

The French Alternative keyboard is (imho) the best available layout for french keyboards… except you can't do a ñ easily and it's quite a shame since a lot of people speaks Spanish too where I live. The space bar is not a nonbreakingspace as far as I know, as all other applications (including OpenOffice.org) reckon it as a regular space.

To do a nbsp in OpenOffice.org, you have to use CTRL+Shift+Spacebar (cumbersome: CRTL+Space was a lot better in OOo2, OOo3 behavior is copied from Microsoft Office).
