Bug Description
Thai tends to use codepoint U+200B (Zero Width Space) for line-breaking control; please add this to the Ubuntu Font Family, as this will particularly help Thai users.
Proprosed solution:
* Map U+200B to the .null glyph (glyph index 1)

There's a bunch of easy stuff in this block that need filling out at some point (all various width thin/non-display spaces, Hyphen, nbsp, figure dash.
I'm really surprised that no other font has brought those glyphs in my substitution; in which case the non-displaying characters are possibly being masked by something from the Ubuntu Font Family.
