Not sure if I'm on the right track here, but if I had to do this
-- And I may in the future, as I sometimes have to deal with Greek
Polytonic, where _several_ combining characters may follow a vowel --
I would somehow box all the unities (where a unity is either a letter
with no diacriticals or a letter followed by all its
diacriticals/combiners) and then reverse the boxed contents.  
 97 ; 115  8413 ; 100 ; 102  773
Voila - combining glyphs preserved.

All I need now is a selective boxing filter... any suggestions?
I haven't quite mastered boxing/unboxing yet, and I get some weird
results.
