ALERT: Potential Issues with Sigil 2.2.X and rtl languages and Normalization Forms - Page 3

The unicode standard is not carved in stone and is in its 15th revision. Would you believe that new emojiis are one of its driving issues.

And AI and text analytics are some of the areas pushing most strongly for search ability and a using precomposed forms.

I can understand the usefulness for most users. It just seems there are enough potential issues with some languages, perhaps potentially more for non-Western, partially given the opinion of some it seems of Unicode in general, that I strongly feel it should be a setting and not something strictly enforced.

Understood. As I said, given demand, I will create an environment variable to disable it once we get things working completely.

Great. I wasn't sure if the variable was either possibly planned or certain. Thank you very much.
