--- Comment #3 from Michael[tm] Smith <mike@w3.org> ---
(In reply to comment #2)
> discussed in bug 13502, where it was concluded that both the use case (a
> combined character with separate styling for the separate parts) and the
> implementation (a text run starting with a combining character) are valid;
> further, they have always been valid.
>
> According https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13502#c6), the
> validator's behavior is intentional and implements charmod-norm; according
> to the later discussion, charmod-norm does not apply to HTML. No change to
> the visible HTML spec was needed to fix this (charmod-norm was never
> referenced in the first place), but a comment to this effect was added
> to the document source.

> So -- in the first case, where text runs do begin with combining characters,
> the validator's behavior is not conforming to the HTML5 spec or any
> normative reference.
CCing Henri Sivonen, who's way more familiar with this than me...
