I’m not aware of a way to poll users.  If there is one established, let
me know.

Best I can do is Google a little and find people binding M-SPC to
‘cycle-spacing’:

* http://pragmaticemacs.com/emacs/cycle-spacing/
* https://github.com/purcell/emacs.d/blob/master/lisp/init-whitespace.el
* https://github.com/rnkn/.emacs.d/blob/master/lisp/init-keys.el
* https://twitter.com/sachac/status/542156450047352835

Further down search result pages, there are people who don’t care much
for or are not convinced about the command but for obvious reasons
finding someone who would oppose changing the binding is rather tricky.
