Comments:
It would be great if Tk supported the full BIDI (bidirectional) algorithm;
character composition is only one step toward this goal.

DesiredBehavior:
There are Unicode combinations formed from stems and composing characters.
There is, however, no way in Tk in either a text or a canvas to compose
two Unicode characters. I would be satisfied to have simple bitwise OR of
the two glyphs, but even that is not possible so far as I can see.
