    Even Microsoft Typography specs call for font developers to make
    glyphs for "invisible" characters and include them in fonts.

    Please see the recommended glyphs for U+200C through U+200F
    on this page:

    http://www.microsoft.com/typography/OpenTypeDevGlyphs.mspx

    The page was apparently last updated in 2001. The practice of
    font developers including glyphs for invisible characters is
    relatively longstanding. So, as MichKa points out, people involved
    in OpenTypography are unlikely to shift viewpoints.

    Best regards,

    James Kass
