+
+	    <simpara>The canonical means of exhibiting a combining
+	     mark such as a vowel sign in isolation is to apply it to
+	     <codepoint character-set="unicode"
+	     codepoint-name="NO-BREAK
+	     SPACE">U+00A0</codepoint>.</simpara>
+
+	    <simpara>On Microsoft operating systems the required
+	      sequence is <codepoint character-set="unicode"
+	      codepoint-name="SPACE">U+0020</codepoint>, <codepoint
+	      character-set="unicode" codepoint-name="ZERO WIDTH
+	      JOINER">U+200D</codepoint>, followed by the vowel
+	      sign.</simpara>
