I do not know if the example from
bug 3672: BiDi: improuve the diffs with regard to RTL issues
is a special case from
bug 3894: white space characters, BiDi control characters should show up in diff

in the examples from bug 3672 some of the special BiDI characters are "probably"
*outsite* wiki brackets
in the examples from bug 3894 the special BiDI characters are *insite* wiki
brackets

for a solution / workaround compare also with
bug 3887: create a special page for instring search of titles specifying %nn values
bug 3696: Unicode Control Characters should be restricted in title text

*expanding the request*

Please note that some characters from the
Unicode Characters in the Combining Diacritical Marks Block
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/block/combining_diacritical_marks/list.htm
are not displayed if they are not used together with other characters.

*scenarios*

• such characters are inserted as the first character in a page
• such characters are inserted as the first character in a paragraph, line (etc.?)

It would be nice to indicate the change in invisible characters somehow, but it's not a very high priority.
