When displaying text where NBSP are a completely normal occurrence
(e.g. email), there should be no special highlighting whatsoever, but
inheriting from the default face won't do that because it removes the
hilighting globally (also, inheriting from default is probably not what you
want to do, instead you want to set all fields to nil).

I.e. as long as we don't have buffer-local face-specs show-non-break
is necessary.

AFAICT, the NBSP in the French tutorial were not accidental.

PS: Hopefully you've replaced the uses of show-nonbreak-escape with uses of
show-non-break.
