I would indicate one property by color only, the other by form. It
would strike me most logically to use color for positive/negative
(blue: positive, red: negative), and, say solid line for non-breakable
and dotted line for breakable.

I agree with using a dichotomy.

Or we could stick with color for breakability and find a good form for
negativeness (we already have one for custom length, but I am not sure
this scales well).

A possibility for negative width (which probably will be seldom used anyway) would be to draw the sign upside down (|‾‾‾|. This is weird and not very informative, but negative spaces are weird too:)


Another thing this is bugging me is that we have a
Color_added_space,
but it is only used for vertical spaces. Should we use this intead
of
Color_latex? Vertical spaces are not unbreakable AFAIK, so maybe
they
should use the same color as normal spaces.

Makes sense.

Note that we can also change the color of all these spaces and are not stuck with the current Brown.
