v 24.2 (left) vs. master (right)
With the fix for bug 67669 the formatting marks now are treated separately from
controls. That means it is possible to highlight fields (ctrl+f8) while the
special formatting is hidden (ctrl+f10) and vice versa. The individual settings
are controlled by tools > options > writer > formatting aids, eg. whether
pilcrows are shown with ctrl+f10 or not.
However, there might be some pieces missing. In particular it happens that a)
the indicator "," for zero width space is still bound to fields. Should it
become rather hidden with ctrl+f10 too?
And b) the soft-hyphen has some hyphen indicator which is either on or off
depending on the setting under formatting aids, but when off it wont be shown
or highlighted with ctrl+f10. The solution should probably be similar to a).
Last observation is that narrow no-break spaces are no different than zero
width now. Not sure this is correct. (Patch for bug 67669 or bug 135451 in
preparation that makes NNBSP behave like ZWSP.)
