Description: The auto-correct localized French option allows adding a non-breakable space before specific punctuation marks. Currently, the space is a U+00A0. The layout would look better with a narrow non-breakable space U+202F, or punctuation space U+2008.

The U+00A0 NBSP NO-BREAK SPACE was added [1] for localizations of the Guillemets « » fr_FR autocorrection pairings, excluding fr_CH. Discussed in bug 127961. But before a change over to a U+202F NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE (NNBSP) might need some consensus from the FR community as either the U+00A0 NBSP or the U+202F NNBSP is accepted. In addition to the U+2005 FOUR-PER-EM SPACE or the U+2008 PUNCTUATION SPACE, both of which carry font dependencies (of missing covered glyphs). Also, what other FR "specific punctuation marks" might need autocorrection adjustment? And for which FR locales, as that seems an issue? See also bug 124108 for the initial work up of the FR Guillemet double quotation markings. =-ref-= [1] https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/80909
