Zero-width characters in 3.7 (and maybe earlier)

Folks -
I just finished a sparring session with Unix during which I found it really frustrating not to be able to see or select linefeeds, since they have zero width in the default font. Back in the old days I remember writing a big do-it which ran around and ensured that all the default fonts had widths of at least 1 for their undefined glyphs.
My question is: Was this a good thing and no one has had the time yet to do it for the new fonts?
If so I might be willing to perform this enhancement again.
If not, I'm curious why (just point me at the archives if it has all been hashed over before).
Thanks
- Dan
