Burmese text will either have ZWSP between words, which means electronic
processes can automatically determine word boundaries, or it will not,
which means they cannot. Unicode does not tell you that you must use
ZWSP in Burmese text, only that "if word boundary indications are
desired" then ZWSP is the right character for the job.
A program could probably be written to add ZWSP to existing Burmese
text. Such a program would almost certainly be dictionary-based and
would need to allow a human to review the text and fix any possible
erorrs or ambiguities.
