Perhaps this is not as novel as what I think but I mention about it anyway.

I've at number of occasions wondered how to add non-collapsible space in front of text in vBulletin. It ended up being rather simple. I just set up couple of custom vbcode tags:

[ 1sp ] ... [ /1sp ]
replaces with:  {param}
prepends: 1 x  

[ 2sp ] ... [ /2sp ]
replaces with:   {param}
prepends: 2 x  

[ 5sp ] ... [ /5sp ]
replaces with:      {param}
prepends: 5 x  

[ 10sp ] ... [ /10sp ]
replaces with:         &n bsp; {param}
prepends: 10 x  

To use these user simply wraps the first word (or letter) inside the "space" tags and the respective number of  's are added in the front of the text. They can be used in the beginning of a line, or in the middle of the text (for example, to have two spaces between sentences.)

Users can nest tags so that if, for example [ 10sp ] and [ 5sp ] tags are used together it results in 15 spaces in front of the wrapped text.

It's &nbsp... no break space?
It's the space tag for HTML.

I knew what it did in html, didn't know the acronym

great idea. I would also create a [p5] tag so that every paragraph of your choosing would be indented by 5 spaces.

The difference between a non-breaking space and a regular space is that a non breaking space won't make a sentence go onto another line.

You could do this with Style Replacement variables.

That, and perhaps more importantly non-breaking space(s) don't collapse so that it's possible to indent a single line (without line feeds above and below it like with the [ indent ] tag) or to add multiple spaces between characters.
