I tried too to learn more about "invisible" characters (i.e. non displayed in code view) by looking for two former entities nbsp (visible in Code view with an orange rectangle) and nnbsp (this one invisible). Note that the latter is displayed in Pre-view and that in Code view you can "feel" them with the cursor and get information with the lower right field.

This is what I found.

The only - clumsy - way today to make this invisible character visible in Code view would be to search and replace it by the entity code &# 8239; (without space). Only then would the invisible" nnbsp be displayed by its entity code name &# 8239; in code view in the calibre editor. But you would have also to insert the DOCTYPE required for entities... I do not think this would be a good solution.
