Some examples of the handling of ZWSP and SHY.

Note that the SHY is visible. The font is Luxi Serif Regular.
I realize there is some controversy about the handling of SHY, but, for
better or worse, Unicode now wants it treated as a hint that is
invisible except at at lien break, IIUC.
The ZWSP handling is probably relying on the font mapping it.
I thought we should be handling it in any case. This needs some digging.
You could perhaps (in this case) use the JRE's Lucida Sans Regular which
is a superior
superset of the Luxi font and does map it.
But I don't think we'd claim to handle the SHY (Soft Hyphen) in the way
you want.
