I'll do that then once I get the final version of the patches.

HTML defines a whole bunch of entities, full list at [2], including
nbsp. XML, which formally has no relation to HTML (in the sense that
those are separate standards, one not referring to the other), defines
only a handful of entities listed at [1] (namely lt, gt, amp, apos and
quot meaning <, >, &, ' and " respectively).
On the other hand, XHTML 1.x, which is a format built on top of XML,
defines the same entities as HTML -- which is mentioned at [3] -- but
I have encountered problems with some browsers (no, I don't mean IE)
when &#nbsp; was used in an XHTML document.
As for SGML I don't know the full story to be honest. I'm not really
sure what SGML *is*, but if I'm not mistaken, an SGML document in itself
does not define any entities, so technically a numeric reference should
probably be used for it as well.
I did not change the hard space character for SGML because of my
ignorance. I'm not sure of use cases and what kind of documents people
edit with sgml-mode, so I decided to leave it as it.
The simplest would probably be to change the entity to numeric one even
in HTML, but I'm not sure if users would like it.

Good idea. Do you think it'd be acceptable to completely drop support
for “("end-" 1)” and change the meaning of strings to be processed by
`replace-mach'? It would greatly simplify the code and I don't expect
many people customising `tildify-ignored-environments-alist' much, so
I would go for it myself.
