~delete-trailing-whitespace~ is a big problem. Only the following survive:

- U+200C (ZWNJ - Zero Width Non-Joiner)
- U+200D (ZWJ - Zero Width Joiner)
- U+2060 (WJ - Word Joiner)
- U+FEFF (ZWNBSP - Zero Width No-Break Space)

It can be suggested in the documentation. But doesn't that make it more complex?
