Comment 29 for bug 942050

Edited the SVG file down to just >mysterycharacter< and then used od to see what it is. Inside the >< are the 3 bytes:
EF 81 A4, which is UTF-8 for unicode F064, which is not a delta character. It is some funky rectangle with itty bitty characters in it. That is how it shows up in the XML editor too. Now that I know what it is:

create a string "AB"
use ^UF064<enter> to place this character between the A and the B
remove the A, remove the B
click on another object.
select all - the inserted character resulting from the above manipulation looks just like the ones that resulted from the WMF
import.
