i think the above was a bulk reply and does not apply here, because those settings do not matter here at all. it is more a design question in x (or perhaps rather in your virtual terminal application or your shell or whereever) if it is good to have chars that look exactly the same but behave completely different. like 1 and I and l or O and 0, but just for whitespace (tab vs nl vs space vs nbsp ...)
