Package: xterm
Version: 327-1
Severity: normal

The following command

  for i in $(seq 2 $(tput cols)); do printf .; done; printf "\u00adP\n"

outputs a sequence of dots, then a soft hyphen, then the character "P"
on the right of the last column (only the left part of the character
is visible). In particular, when doing a "clear", one can still see
the left part of the character "P". The character "P" should have been
output either over the soft hyphen or at the first column of the next
line. Well, I don't know how zero-width characters should be handled,
but the behavior of xterm should be consistent.

There's the same issue with U+200F (RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) and probably
other zero-width characters:

  for i in $(seq 2 $(tput cols)); do printf .; done; printf "\u200FP\n"

Note: with "xterm -k8", there is the same issue with

  for i in $(seq 2 $(tput cols)); do printf .; done; printf "\255P\n"

as the byte \255 (= \xad) also corresponds to a soft hyphen.
