Details:

Hi Michal - It seems \<space> (or \<newline>, etc.) generates a no-break
space. This seems wrong to me. The meaning in TeX is (as you know :) a regular
(breakable) space. Does this seem feasible to change to you?

Input:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}\thispagestyle{empty}
foo\ bar
\end{document}

Process: htlatex foo.tex "xhtml,html5"

Output (boilerplate omitted):
foo&#x00A0;bar

(or the Unicode equivalent 0302 0240, given "-cunihtf -utf8".)

Thanks,
Karl
