That is true for almost all of the characters I write, but I
certainly have text that I've got from other places that isn't
precomposed. I could normalise most of it down to precomposed
characters, but it's nice to not have to think about it.

That said, and st is already perfectly usable for the things I do
with unicode (whatever bugs there are don't bite me in a way that I
notice or care about).
