[issue16623] argparse help formatter does not honor non-breaking space

[paul j3]

paul j3 added the comment:

The issue here is how `textwrap` handles the non-breaking space.  That's being address here:

http://bugs.python.org/issue20491 textwrap: Non-breaking space not honored

Temporarily an `argparse` user can get around it with `formatter_class=argparse.RawTextHelpFormatter`.  That suppresses all automatic wrapping, so it's not perfect.
