    When working with the TMP_Input field, make sure you use the .text property of the TMP_InputField and not of the underlying text component.

    For instance, in the case of a password, the text component would contain "*******" whereas the TMP_InputField.text would contain the actual password.

    This Zero Width Space is used in the underlying / child text component for layout purposes only but since you should not be referencing / using this .text property, it should not matter.
