Re: Combining latin small letters with diacritics

So what do you propose ?
- Encoding the new precomposed pairs as a new combining character
(there may be a lot of candidate pairs to encode, espacially in the
Latin script),
- or encoding a variation of the existing diacritic to mean that they
are bound to a first-level of diacritic (here a combining letter),
- or duplicating the encoding of the diacritics without using varation
selectors ?
- or using an upper layer protocol ?
