            Bug ID: 107447
           Summary: Terms of 2 Formatting Marks are different to the
                    Unicode Terms
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: harald.koester at mail.de

In LibreOffice the terms 'No-width optional break' and 'No-width no break' are
used as formatting marks. These are not the official Unicode terms. The Unicode
terms are 'Zero-width non-joiner' (U+200C) and 'Zero-width joiner' (U+200D). 

Expectation: Use of Unicode terms.

The mentioned terms occur at the following places:
(a) Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw: Menu > Insert > Formatting Mark
(b) Help page 'Formatting Mark'
(c) Writer help page 'Preventing Hyphenation of Specific Words'

Hint: It may be wise to add the old terms in brackets to the new terms, hence
AFAIK Microsoft uses the same old terms.

If necessary the new terms also have to be localised. According Wikipedia the
terms in German are 'Bindehemmer' and 'Breitenloser Verbinder”.

Bugs exist already in verion 3.3.0. Hence inherited from OOo.
