I don't know. I try to avoid politics, if possible. The significance of what I'm saying is that you have made a good start in your proposal, that it has some shortcomings, and that I hope to be able to help put something more complete together.
It would be great if there were eventually a proposal, based on all your contributions, to which you would all be happy to attach your names, and which would be recommended to the UTC by all interested parties.
I'll have to look closely at samples again, but it seems to me that the accent marks are not pointing and thus not combining marks (though the vowel points of course are combining marks). They appear to be used more as punctuation than as letter-diacriticals.
Do you mean that they are spacing characters?
