    This renders fine as a vertical line above *and separated from* a
    macron, but is not the tack character that David is proposing.

    Agreed. The examples in David's proposal all show a single inverted-T
    glyph, not a vertical line above and separated from a horizontal line.
     With several other combining tack characters already encoded, it
    would be perverse not to encode this one.
