Just like:
U+0074 U+0361 U+0073 U+0307
The sequence <U+0073, ZWJ, U+0307> could request a ligature of the
s and the dot-above, but since it is unlikely that any type designer
is going to actually ligate the dot into the s and produce a
ligature glyph for it, the sequence is likely to be rendered as
if it were just <U+0073, U+0307>, that is an s with a dot-above.

Possibly. It is certainly a simple solution.
