You mean "a visible wordspace" since that's a function of HYPHEN in
IDN relevant here. Actually, no, I really don't think there are.
Scripts which use visible wordspaces are mostly extinct.
I don't say that not adding ETHIOPIC WORDSPACE is a deal-breaker or
anything. But it should be considered carefully.
