Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I just exported my terms to CSV and when I looked at the CSV I noticed that some multi-word terms have <200B> markers, which apparently is unicode for "zero-width space".

For example:

Amerika<200b> <200b>Kusini,,South America,Swahili,,2025-04-23 20:38:46,4,,
habari<200b> <200b>za<200b> <200b>mchana,,good afternoon,Swahili,,2025-04-10 11:29:19,3,,

Describe the solution you'd like

I wonder if the import web function should remove such special characters.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'm not sure.

BTW, there might also be other characters that should be stripped, like byte-order mark (BOM) but maybe that wouldn't show up on a web page.
