Hmm, I find that disconcerting.  I’d prefer a real Unicode character with 
special weights if that concept’s needed.  And I guess that goes a long ways to 
explaining the interchange problem since clearly the code editor’s going to 
need these ☹

To further my understanding, can someone provide examples of how these are used 
in actual practice?

CLDR collation data defines special contraction mappings that start with a 
noncharacter, for 
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-collation.html#CJK_Index_Markers

In CLDR 23 and before (when we were still using XML collation syntax), these 
were raw noncharacters in the .xml files.

As I said earlier:
it should be ok to include noncharacters in CLDR data files for processing by 
CLDR implementations, and it should be possible to edit and diff and 
version-control and web-view those files etc.
