OOo supports a feature called sequence input checking or SIC. Its purpose is to
reject the input character that would make an invalid combining character
sequence. Currently this is only implemented for Thai but theoretically it can
be implemented for any language that has the concept of invalid sequence.

The problem with the current implementation is: quietly ignoring the input
character does not draw the user's attention that there is something wrong. The
user may think that the character typed has been entered into the document
successfully. 

Normally, when you type a character that will make a Thai  invalid sequence in
Windows XP's Notepad, you'll hear a sound. Therefore you know that you may have
to do something, e.g. backspace, before you can type the character.

In OOo, the users should be able to setup the SIC to sound a bell or flash the
window or do nothing, depends, for example, on an option in
Tools/Options/Complex Text Layout/Sequence checking.
