In Turkish and Azeri, "i" is explictly dotted. It's the same U+0069 as
everyone else uses, but in those languages, there is less leeway in
glyph appearance, since it must be disambiguated from "ı". And, most
important, the corpus of existing documents in Turkish and Azeri already
uses U+0069 to represent dotted "i".
