I think the rationale (if any) would be that your OS is supposed to take care 
of that. If it supports Unicode, it should provide you a way to produce Unicode 
chars in *any* application.

(composed in HTML mode, just to see what the effect of this "Insert characters and 
features" is)

Well, I can't deny the logic of that, but just being able to "produce"
Unicode characters is not quite the same as being able to insert the
right character easily ...  If I use the Insert characters and features here,
I am presented with a selectable base character and then all
composite variants thereof  : I know of nothing similar in the various
Windows IMEs that approaches this in simplicity, so for me it would
be /very/ convenient to be able to "Insert characters and features" in
exactly the same way that those who elect to compose in HTML can do.
There would seem to be no /a priori/ justification for restricting this feature
to mails composed in HTML.
