You mean combining character sequences (and other compatibility and
canonical decompositions). Yes, Emacs does not yet fully support
them. And there are several other features codified by Unicode that
AFAIK we still don't support.

The only overlap I know of is that Hebrew and Arabic have
diacriticals, so any support for combining sequences will have to
include that.
