The new snake character needs to have in its remarks field see-also
links to these:
U+115F HANGUL CHOSEONG FILLER
U+1160 HANGUL JUNGSEONG FILLER
U+3164 HANGUL FILLER : chaeum
My opjion is that the choice of graphics for these fillers is just a matter
of style. A single filler (format control) would be enough to encode
(simplying later the text handling in order to ignore them for plain text
searches or collation). These fillers are only made for specific text
layouts

Those "snakes" do exist in Arabic for justification purpose (they are
formatting controls insertable between pairs of joined letters and possibly
used as base holders for diacritics).
Otherwise they are just normal "filler" (punctuation-like symbols like
leader dots, otherwise "crap text").

The SILE typesetting engine now implements full support for this new
justification strategy. Please see http://www.sile-typesetter.org/
That sounds more like traditional Tibetan justification than kashida:

I though kashida (TATWEEL) was a precedent not to be followed. The
issue of course, is that chained snakes do not reflow well,
Arabic has tatweel/kashida for justification; rather similar in principle.
