Re: useing NFC for unicode?

[Karl Berry]

    My wild guess is that 'real' manuals with Unicode are still not very
    common

I'm sure that is true.  And I think that is fine.

I remain disinclined to change anything here until someone gives us an
example where our behavior causes a problem.

After all, if a user incorrectly writes "a" and "ring" characters in
their input, very likely what they really want is the "aring"
character.  If they are really talking a and ring separately, they would
need to do something to separate them anyway.
