The problem only occurs because I have 'bind ^Space " " all' in my ~/.nanorc, where there is a non-breaking space between the double quotes.  The issue goes away when I use 'main' instead of 'all'.

But... codes outside of the seven-bit range shouldn't happen, and cannot be represented (at least not easily), so... let's just skip those.

To reproduce, run nano, and type: ^G ^Space.
Result, the status bar reports: "[ Unbound key: � ]".

Expected behavior: when the key cannot be nicely represented, it should simply say "Unbound key".  And in this case, also ^2 and ^@ and ^` produce the title message, so it will be better not to say that "^Space" is unbound.
