I know that there is no evidence for a compatibility codepage for the character proposed in L2/25-061, but I'm talking about the precedent for composing spacing diacritics with combining characters, not for encoding precomposed forms.

No character that was encoded solely for compatibility with existing character sets (and it looks like U+0385 is one of those) ever serves as a precedent for encoding other similar characters for which the compatibility issue does not apply.   --  Doug Ewell, CC, ALB | Lakewood, CO, US | ewellic.org
