Given the spam that I've been receiving in the past few months the
ignore invisible text feature would be of little use.  It was supposed
to ignore text intentionally included to confound the Baysean
classifier.  However in alot of recent spam I've received such
confounding words do not appear in an invisible region so the feature
would not skip them.  Also the confounding words are re-used and so
many are recognized as spammy the second time around, so skipping them
would reduce SpamAssassin's effectiveness.  

I'm attaching a sample of such mail below.
