Although the original question has been answered already, for the
record, those three examples of yours have all the very same size in my
font, which happens to be monospace. Beside that, the user is only
ever seeing a number of occurences of a single character. So there is
nothing to compare a wider or larger character to. The whole idea
behind "invisible" characters is that they don't reflect the actual
password in the first place.
ciao,
Christian
