I'd probably use a macro.  In your .vimrc (.virc) put something like
this:

map ,is &nbsp

  (The last char is an escapre produced by "ctrl-v esc")


Then in your docuements you can just hit ",is" for the insert and it'll
drop you back into command mode after.  Get rid of the esc at the end
and it'll leave you in insert mode.  Note you have to be in command mode
for macros to work.
