--- Comment #7 from Khaled Hosny <khaledhosny at eglug.org> ---
Checking the code, 
No-width optional break, inserts U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE
No-width no ~break, inserts U+2060 WORD JOINER

So these are different characters from ZWJ and ZWNJ, but I still think the
names need to be changed because they are still confusing. People should not
need to check the code to find out what character is this. One suggestion is to
keep the terminology (for familiarity of existing users), and add the actual
character code point between parentheses, and the full name in the tooltip.


e.g.:

No-width optional break (U+200B) → tooltip: Inserts U+200B Zero Width Space
