Yes, it has, that is: &nbsp;

My turn: I was unaware of such a property -- but I'm not sure it fits
my need.

Orgmode is aware of it (just in case you don't know, type C-x 8
<space>). 

But, I'd need more granularity at the export time: don't keep
the non-breaking spaces into the latex export for the following symbols,
as mentioned earlier:

    : ; ? ! « »

Thanks in advance,
Sébastien
