Why not use:
G + U+0338 COMBINING LONG SOLIDUS OVERLAY
g + U+0338 COMBINING LONG SOLIDUS OVERLAY
K + U+0338
k + U+0338
etc. ?
In your draft proposal you call them "indivisible glyphs" - what does
that mean? IMO there is no good reason why these "indivisible glyphs"
cannot be represented by combinations of two characters. Chances are
there is already data where these are represented as a combination of
two characters.
