Perfect, I'll be updating the CodeMirror dependency before 1.7, so the fix will ship with the next release of Zettlr! Thank you very much for helping out! It's well received! :)

Is this part of the following setting regex: https://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#option_specialChars ? Can you identify this?

Not as far as I can tell. But I could reproduce this in CodeMirror demos.

Then this looks like it's for CodeMirror to have a look … would you mind searching their issue tracker if they had this discussion (so as to determine _why_ the ZWNJ has been determined "unrenderable")?

I have opened an issue today there, and it seems that it has been fixed and will be on the next release of code mirror:

BTW, as of now, this problem still persists.

Thanks for reminding me, totally forgot to pull that patch. But did it now!
