What's wrong with `show-nonbreak-space'?

BTW, the variable-name (show-nonbreak-space) and the face
(no-break-space) should use consistent terminology (I prefer
"no-break" myself, but...).

Also, there seems to be a bug in that though -- non-nil, non-t values
of `show-nonbreak-space' switch to "show preceding escape-character
mode" for NBSP, but _turn off_ the preceding escape character for
soft-hyphen characters!
