Some of you have been at this already, but either way, please have a
look at the new Ubuntu Font if you are running Wily. It has some fixes

Ah OK, so to be 100% clear, is it worth checking this font out in Wily or
only in its default configuration in Xenial?

Nicholas,
What I see when I execute this:
pango-view --font="Ubuntu 48" --markup --text='
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.'

3. a space
4. The quick brown fox jumps
Yea, crazy crazy link. I send in plain text, so I didn't think about it.
The link has spaces in it.
Let me just end the madness by fixing the wiki:

Some of you may remember the birth of the ubuntu font family during the
