For the record ...

There's no such thing as a no-break space "hexadecimal character." \xa0
IS the unicode character (and vice-versa). It's just another way of referencing the exact same thing. Used in a regex expression, \xa0 matches the unicode no-break space character. In a regex replace expression, \xa0
inserts the unicode no-break character. \xa0 is useful in regex mainly because one can't actually
type the no-break space character (though it could be copy/pasted into an expression) with a key.

No. Just the unicode
character ... which \xa0 represents. Entity representations of the no-break space character are fine.
