RE: ij (ij ligature) with graves

Use <00EC, 006A, 0300> or <0069, 0300, 006A, 0300>. The grave accent
does replace the dot over the j in many modern fonts; try to use those.

The fact that ij is sometimes considered a single letter in the Dutch
alphabet does not mean you have to use U+0133 to represent it, or even
that you should [1]. A similar argument applies to your question about
ch and c'h. See [2] for more information.
