This is especially troublesome for alternative space character ("Narrow No-Break Space" for example) and technical characters.
It would be nice to have an option to disable the automatic conversion of entities completely (or partially: only Unicode Entities are kept, the other ones are converted)
For me, having to ask the user to manually enter the exceptions (without any other alternative) is not a good feature.

Blame the DEVICE manufactures that decided to NOT support entities any longer. Calibre and Sigil went with the most bulletproof code for those that don't WANT TO LEARN the alternates.
