+// Unicode de-steganography for text that flows through the privacy boundary.
+//
+// Invisible and format-control characters are a single vector with three abuses,
+// all relevant to a redaction product:
+//
+//   1. Redaction bypass - splitting a value with zero-width chars (j<ZWSP>o<ZWSP>hn@x.com)
+//      hides it from the regex/NER detector, then the model reassembles the real
+//      value. The deterministic engine works on text, so the smuggled PII leaks.
+//   2. Hidden prompt injection - Unicode Tag characters (U+E0000-E007F) render as
+//      nothing but encode a full ASCII instruction the model reads ("ASCII smuggling").
+//   3. Fingerprinting / watermarking - steganographic markers injected into a prompt
+//      (e.g. a client classifying a custom gateway and encoding a bit into invisible
+//      punctuation). A privacy proxy should scrub these - and never emit its own.
+//
+// We strip the channels that have no legitimate place in plain prompt text, while
+// PRESERVING the few legitimate uses (emoji ZWJ/variation sequences, normal accents).
+//
+// The patterns are BUILT FROM NUMERIC CODE POINTS below - there are deliberately no
+// literal invisible characters anywhere in this source (auditable, and fitting for a
+// de-steg module). Pure + dependency-free ESM. Call it BEFORE detection so obfuscated
+// PII becomes matchable, and on model output before restoration so a token can't be
+// split/spoofed with invisibles.
