Does anyone know of any cases where the same combining mark is combined
with the same base character in two or more different positions, and
where the positioning is semantically significant? How does Unicode deal
with this situation? Would variation selectors be appropriate in this
situation, or what other mechanism might be proposed?
I am looking for examples other than Hebrew vav and holam, because I am
looking for precedents for dealing with this situation elsewhere in
Unicode. I am also excluding distinctions like DOT ABOVE and DOT BELOW,
where the marks are treated as different characters although the glyphs
may actually be the same.
