            No, it shouldn't. Unicode deals with characters, not parts of
    characters, despite making use of character composition to form some of
    those characters. As such, getting involved in sub-character issues, such
    as how to color parts of characters, is out of scope. That's how I see it.
    But of course, my vision doesn't mean much. What does the UTC see? Is this
    still then an undecided issue?
