It does not look like this bug was resolved successfully.
When creating a simple jsfiddle with the HTML <textarea></textarea>, running it and pasting some text containing non-breaking spaces from LibreOffice Writer into the text area, all non-breaking spaces will be converted to normal spaces. This can be verified by trying to copy the text back to Writer or by using a complete form and a server-side script which does not receive the non-breaking spaces after a submit.
When trying the exact same thing using Chromium the non-breaking spaces are preserved.
In our production line it is necessary that every character gets stored as-is to our CMS.
