Unicode has this wonderfull method of representing, e.g., ö by "o ¨"[0] as well as by just ö. There are also characters you couldn't represent otherwise, like putting the ¨ above a q. This brings up several issues:
1) Does "ö" = "o¨"? They display the same. They mean the same. They
probably should.
2) What is char 1 of "o¨", anyway?
a) If it's "o¨", then what's the chartonum of that?
b) If it's "ö", then what's char 1 of "q¨"?
3) Should we automaticly convert "o¨" to "ö" in
[0] Note that the umlaut here is not actually a unicode combining
character. Otherwise, it would of been combined with the space(!).
