And U+FEFF "ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE", notable because it's also used as
the byte-order mark (as its counterpart, U+FFFE, is unallocated). I've been
fighting with VLC Media Player over the font it uses for subtitles; for
some bizarre reason, that font represents U+FEFF not with zero pixels of
emptiness, but with a box containing the letters "ZWN" "BSP" on two lines.
Yeah, because that totally takes up zero width and looks like blank space.
