In the alternative, you can build the string used to execute the pipeline piecemeal?

That's up to the terminal and the context.  Zsh normally doesn't
output special characters like non-breaking spaces but since you refer

$'\u00a0' wherever you need it.

Most terminals are going to wrap at the right margin even for
non-breaking spaces, so unless you're using a proportional font for
some reason, ASCII spaces are likely just as good.
