OK. This is easy enough for soft hyphens, but seems to be impossible for ZWNJ. I can enter both ZWNJ and soft hyphens into the search dialog from the "Insert character"dialog, but unlike soft hyphens, a search for a ZWNJ always fails. (It also leaves me with the mystery of what the other invisible characters are that mess up my formatting, but that's a separate problem.)
