"Accepted" and "very correct" have two different definitions as far as I'm
concerned
(how can something be very correct anyway?)

Would creating a hack to force the display of two spaces not be akin to
using tags improperly (such as using a h1 tag simply to make big text)?

I do agree that with mono space fonts, two spaces makes a huge difference,
but I don't recall seeing mono space fonts on a website any time recently...

Just my thoughts...
