How about the BIDI support? Should we allow the BIDI mark? How about non-spacing mark?

[Martin] : >With "the role of accents", do you mean the French case, where >accents may be removed on uppercasing? [Alain] : Accents may not be removed on uppercasing for orthodox French spelling. Worldwide. Source: all major dictionaries (none uses lower case for its entries, and accents are all there!), all grammarian authorities (the major one is Grevisse, in Belgium), all typographical authorities in France, without counting the proverbial Canadian and Quebecer usage. For one century there has been confusion on this, due mostly to mechanical typerwiters embarrassment. That's fortunately over. However accents normally don't count much for alphabetic order, they are considerwed only in case of quasi-homography (cote, côte, coté, côté, pèche, pêche, péché).
