--- Comment #9 from Khaled Hosny <[email protected]> ---
U+20E3 is a Nonespacing Mark, so it is supposed to combine with the previous
character. This is what is causing the spacing.

I don’t understand what is the intended use here, but if it is a spacing white
box, then this is the wrong character. May be use something like U+2610,
U+25A1, or U+25A2.

U+20E3 is meant to simulate keyboard buttons, i.e. A⃣ to simulate “A” button.

I don’t know why Microsoft Word makes it a spacing symbol, but this does not
seem to be Unicode-complaint.

IMHO, should be close as NOTABUG, unless Microsoft-compatibility here is
considered important (and then it would need deeper research on why and when
Microsoft does this, and a comparability flag).
