Summary: Actions on the Get Infos page

Initial Comment:
The list of actions in each line on the Get Infos page
is separated by non-breaking spaces (nbsp entity). If
the list get too long, it will collide with the menu or
page border, as the browser is not authorized to split
it in two lines.

Replacing the nbsp between each action name by a
regular space would solve this issue nicely.

This is not a bug but a design that needs wide window. If your window is 
narrow and you use big fonts, you will have to use the horizontal scroll bar. 
MoinMoin uses the font you setup in your browser.

This problem is typical with rightsidebar theme, which does not work well 
with narrow windows and big fonts.

I think we can replace the nbsp with regular space as the design - 
whitespace in this case should be set by the css.

I have seen this bug with all available themes shipped with
MoinMoin. I am therefore re-opening it.

As a result of this bug, the "Get Info" page tends to be too
long to be seen without using the horizontal scroll bar.

I cannot comment on the broken browsers issues, but with a
regular browser, it seems to worsen the situation rather
than improving it.

Is this problem relevant for the modern theme? Or did you
just see it with the rightsidebar theme? The last one does
not look nice if your screen resolution is too low. That is
a known problem.

Please reopen this bug if it is relevant for the modern theme.

iirc, the nbsp was put there on purpose. if replaced by a
space, some browsers break the actions into 2 lines too
early (instead of breaking the comment field)

So I am not sure if that would be really an improvement.

It is known that esp. the rightsidebar theme has multiple
problems with non-breaking stuff to the left, those actions
are only a very minor part of that problem.
