Access to precomposed accented metrical symbols
Brought to you by:

I can't make × (multiply) and – (en dash) combine with combining diacritics to form metrical symbols as provided in U+F700 to U+F71C in both XeLaTeX and LibreOffice Writer (compare attached file), using Junicode 1,002. Looking at the glyph properties of × as well as the precomposed metrical-symbol counterparts in Fontforge, it looks like there are no ligature rules defined. If I recall, this was not an issue in earlier versions of the font.
It never occurred to me to provide this feature, but it makes sense. I'll look into it.
