Thus, we need a COMBINING DOUBLE INVISIBLE DIACRITIC ("CDID", with
semantics like U+0361 COMBINING DOUBLE INVERTED BREVE), to stack the
acute on it (according to the mechanism described in the printed
edition of TUS 5.0, p. 255/256) ...
More seriously, a special character like a COMBINING BASE JOINER
which has about the semantics of the sequence "CDID" + CGJ would do it.
Would such a thing be a candidate for encoding?
