             Bug #: 32717
           Summary: Question: Bidi overrides and Unicode spaces removal
                    from titles: why not zero-width space and horizontal
                    tab?
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.19-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Parser
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: lupo.bugzi...@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


This is not a bug, just a question.

Looking at Title::secureAndSplit at
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Title.php?revision=104051&view=markup#l2722
(related to old bug 3696), I wonder why

1. the zero-width space (U+200B, or UTF-8 E2 80 8B) is not stripped?

2. the horizontal tab \t is not included in the whitespace regexp to be
replaced by an underscore?

Oversights, or is there some reason? Are these stripped somewhere else already?
