There are two ways to represent such letters: You can use the "combined" code
point, like U+EB, or you can use the separate code points for a letter and the
dieresis (U+A8). As far as I recall, combined code points exist for vowels
only, so you couldn't write the G with dieresis this way.

RTL languages happen to have much more diverse use of diacritics than Latin
scripts, but the document I attached proves that the problem is not actually
RTL related. I believe you'll find Thai, which also uses combining characters
heavily, to have the same problem although it's LTR.
