I generally have

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
  <!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;">
  <!ENTITY sp   "<xsl:text> </xsl:text">
]>

as the top end of my stylesheet, then I can use

<xsl:template match="whatever">
  stuff&nbsp;more stuff

to get a simple seperator.

Perhaps for fo, the equivalent would be

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
  <!ENTITY sp "<fo:inline>&nbsp;</fo:inline>">
]>
