Hi Jeff,
A global sounds fine by me. I had been thinking about a more generic
entity function, something like html::entity(entityname, $repetitions =
1) but I can't see any real use for that.
A global $NBSP might be handy in templates and it's shorter to type out
than HTML::nbsp().
Not sure where a good place is to insert a global declaration of $NBSP,
back in HtmlElement.php where the constant was?
