Emmanual: reading the upstream bug we have the choice between

- having space input broken in media players (i.e rhythmbox)
- having rctrl broken
- having a layout that leads to wrongly input nbsp chars

neiher of those look to good and I'm not sure what's the best solution, I will need to check what lucid was doing but

- the rhythmbox issue was solved at this time (not sure if the fix was already breaking rctrl there)
- we really want the rhythmbox issue fixed, so if we have to choice we will pick one of the 2 other bugs
- I'm not sure how many users use rctrl, I'm french and I never used it nor saw people around me use ... are you left handed (I'm wondering if that reverses usage and if a lefty would use the right ctrl)?

until we get those questions sorted we will stay on the current behaviour which seems the less annoying from the ones listed
