I have opened ticket #157 concerning the double space key requirement.
I tried starting Xephyr using
startx /usr/X11/bin/twm -- /usr/X11/bin/Xephyr :20 -kb
and this still exhibits this behaviour.
I tried running xev as suggested in ticket #81. The output generated
when I press space twice is
KeyRelease event, serial 23, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001,
root 0x3c, subw 0xa00002, time 13800615, (37,39), root:(71,183),
state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " "
XFilterEvent returns: False
KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001,
root 0x3c, subw 0xa00002, time 13801582, (37,39), root:(71,183),
state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " "
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " "
XFilterEvent returns: False
I will provide any additional information, just specify what you would
like me to run/do.

Yes.
I have tried using Xephyr but it has the incredibly annoying
behaviour of requiring space to be pressed twice in order to get a
single space to register. The behaviour is the same as reported in
ticket #81 for milestone 2.2.1 for Xnest and that has been marked
as wontfix. This issue makes Xephyr unusable for me.
That ticket was closed because I couldn't reproduce it, and the
reported never responded to my questions. I cannot reproduce it
using twm on Xephyr.
Please try the following. Start you Xephyr by doing:
startx /path/to/your/xinitrc/or/wm -- /usr/X11/bin/Xephyr :20
example:
startx /Users/jeremy/.xinitrc.kde -- /usr/X11/bin/Xephyr :20
or
startx /usr/X11/bin/twm -- /usr/X11/bin/Xephyr :20
What WM are you trying to use? How are you starting Xephyr? Please
reopen that bug or create a new one and provide this relevant
information.
Thanks.
