This only applies where it is traditional to separate words, a habit
the Romans got out of and the Irish revived.
Unicode Word Boundary Rule WB4 (in UAX #29 'Unicode Text
Segmentation') decrees that U+2060 and U+FEFF be ignored in
word-boundary determination except that newline breaks before them and
that inserting them between between <CR> and <LF> creates an extra word
boundary.
