IMHO you should never use double spaces to get a bigger space, instead use
a wider space. (This is also more consistent with how TeX works.)
Unicode contains several suitable spaces.

(And in Swedish it has never ever been correct with two spaces after a
period, I think it may be the same for many other languages.)
