Why do you say that U+3000 is a compatibility character? My understanding of
a "compatibility character" in Unicode is a character that either:
1) has the word "COMPATIBILITY" in its name (from
ftp.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/UnicodeData-Latest.txt)
2) is in a block that has the word "Compatibility" in its name (from
ftp.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/Blocks.txt)
U+3000 seems to fall in neither of these cases: it just has a compatibility
mapping ("<wide> 0020"), as many other characters do.
