Roozbeh,
What would the effect of Zero-Width No-Break Space have in non-Arabic text?
For example would it be used for something like "macbeth" so that a title
case routine would transform it into "MacBeth"?

That's Zero-Width Non-Joiner you're talking about. We were talking about
Zero-Width No-Break Space.
