> Would it not make more sense to have not two, but /three/ different
kinds of lowercase i: <non-dotted i>, <soft-dotted i> and <hard-dotted
i>?. (And similarly for uppercase). Of course, then you might as well
invent COMBINING SOFT DOT ABOVE so we can use it elsewhere.

I should have mentioned that in this hypothetical scheme, the following
would be canonically equivalent:

<soft-dotted-i> = <non-dotted-i> <combining-soft-dot-above>
<soft-dotted-I> = <non-dotted-I> <combining-soft-dot-above>
<hard-dotted-i> = <non-dotted-i> <combining-dot-above>
<hard-dotted-I> = <non-dotted-I> <combining-dot-above>

Sorry for the omission in previous email
