On the official Web site of the Cherokee Nation (Tahlequah, Oklahoma), there
is a Cherokee keyboard, there is a nice keyboard layout that goes with the
font they offer:

    http://www.cherokee.org/Extras/downloads/font/Keyboard.htm

For key E00, level 1 (i.e. the unshifted grave-accent key), there is a little
squiggly mark called "Accent." I can't find any indication of the purpose of
this character -- what it's supposed to accent -- but it's not encoded in
Unicode.

Does anyone know what this character is for, or why it wasn't encoded? I
read Michael Everson's 1995 proposal for Cherokee (WG2 N1172) and couldn't
find any mention of it.
