 Turns out this is not that simple. Changing the zero-width space char
 (placeholder) in TinyMCE requires other changes and fixes, most for IE.
 See
 https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/commit/16750c20fdba279ff98f0e45aea5e859b1384e27.

 In that terms we would have to backport several changes that are (mostly)
 untested in WordPress. Not sure this is good for a dot release. This would
 have been very nice to fix but is not a regression from 4.5. Seems better
 to leave it for 4.7.
