I haven't followed the conversations too closely, but the 3rd scenario you try to ignore has a very common name: ligature. Ie. Special glyphs for combinations of "fi", "ff", for example. To recap, common usages: One-to-one: alternatesMany-to-one: accent marks, e.g. umlautsOne-glyph-to-many-unicode-characters: ligatures, e.g. "ff", "fi".
