Do we absolutely need the ones that are currently in english-iso?
's are definitely necessary to preserve formatting issues. I checked through the strings and it seems as if the extra blanks are intentional. They would get removed because of standard HTML-rendering issues if we replaced them with " " characters.
The usage of " in the single case for $strJustDeleteDescr is necessary, because the message appears inside a title="..." attribute. If we converted that to " the title-attribute would appear to be closed and half of the string would be missing.
In short: Keep 'em. :-)
