ummm, haven't tried that, but even without normalisation issues, may 
cause display issues.

suspect the font rendering system/text layout in the browser would 
break, just a guess would need to test. At the very least a developer or 
graphic designer would need to take a lot of care about cascade affects 
wrt font declarations ;) but then care is needed with any font 
declaration involving combining diacritics.
