How irritating!
In the meantime, looking in FontForge it seems that this feature is
part of the "Show Diacritics" options which, as mentioned, don't seem
to be able to be turned off. Palatino has the same feature (which again
doesn't work in TextEdit but does in WorldText), but this one *can* be
turned off.
Could a font mapping fix the problem by inserting a zero width
character in between the problem characters? Or would this only work in
fonts that actually have this "glyph"?
