Found SRE_STATE.java handling SRE_CATEGORTY_UNI_SPACE just delegates this to Character.isWhitespace which has a note specifically about 0x00a0. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html#isWhitespace(char) calls out the few exceptions. isSpaceChar looks better in the docs, but fails to note decimal 9, 10, 11, 12, 28, 29, 30, 31. CPython also handles 133 (0x0085) specially. Its unicode category is Cc (same as 10, 13, etc). Would you accept a patch that makes the jython agree with the CPython implementation here?
