What I understand is that Dagesh/Mappiq/Shuruk are diacritical symbols that
cannot stand alone. It's a dot inside the symbol changing the Hebrew Vet into
Bet. Similar in French for ^ or ´ in â or á.

Khaled is the expert in this topic and he said in comment 20: "...inserted as
<span> with a text style... we don’t join spans when shaping (long outstanding
bug, might be the root for bug 61444)."

So updating the font will not improve anything. Perhaps a topic to dive in for
Hossein.
