Any option not to catch unbreakable space?

[kud]

Hello,

I'm using wordsWithSpace function to make the diff but I'd like not to catch unbreakable spaces. Is there any option to do that?

For the moment I do this:

    /* remove unbreakable space */
    const original = this.props.original.replace(/ /gi, ' ')
    const changed = this.props.changed.replace(/ /gi, ' ')

    const differential = diffFnMap[this.props.type](original, changed)

As in, you'd like a version of diffWordsWithSpace that treats whitespace changes as changes except for changes where spaces are converted to non-breaking spaces, or vice versa, in which case you want the strings to be treated as identical?

There's of course no option specifically for that highly specific task, nor would I want to add one. But you could in principle do this by extending wordDiff with a tweaked equals method. We don't have got docs on defining custom differs right now, but we've got an issue to add such docs (#149) which I'll get to at some point.
