Unicode directionality control marks introduce a weird character when they're
used in XUL text. This behavior doesn't appear in regular HTML text. See the
attached testcase for an example.

Seems like this is just the way this character looks like in the Arial font I'm using. Which probably means XUL text isn't printed via a BiDi algorythm which strips those "zero-width" characters.

Ilya's analysis is correct. Marking dependency on bug 99823, since the patch
there (attachment 77103 [details] [diff] [review]) fixes this problem.

Ilya, do you still see this? Most of the patch from bug 99823 has been checked
in via the dependencies and I don't see the problem in the testcase anymore, but
I would like confirmation since it may only appear in certain fonts.

On latest build, works for me with the same fonts I've used previously.
Consider this fixed and verified.
