Comment:

 Thanks for the report and welcome to Trac! Is this problem new to 4.6?

 I see the GitHub issue was acknowledged by TinyMCE in April.

 We are also using that character for the text patterns, but it is
 carefully inserted and removed again. We are not removing just any
 character.  We should maybe use \uFEFF though if the other is used in some
 languages, but I'm not sure if there were any problems with that one.
