Juan Manuel,

in fact, i am always queasy when i enter ZWNBSP in a .org (or any other)
file. some sort of "visible" sequence would be great. backwards
compatibility might be a problem.
your last example
: [''*literature*'']
seems a bit of sleight-of-hand, though. iiuc, text inside square
brackets isn't highlighted currently, and ZWNBSP doesn't (afaict) turn
on highlighting. (maybe there's been recent discussion, modifications
of this?)
i.e., if the goal is to *expand* the realm of highlighting, might that
not be a separate issue?
cheers, Greg
