Ommitting a space in Info would be weird for French typography:
@thinspace should be used before an exclamation or question mark and a
right guillemet, and after a left guillemet. When the thin space is
unavailable, a plain or unbreakable space is generally used instead.

I don't think so; why not use " "? We already use it in LilyPond
HTML manual. " " is unbreakable in Mozilla Firefox.

IMHO yes.
