In my experience, the support for Unicode spaces is fragile. In principle, what you want is not   (#8201), which is a breaking space (a line break can happen on it), but rather & #8239;, which is non-breaking.

My opinion is that you should not introduce any kind of space between the quotes, and the spacing should be handled through font kerning instead.
