unicode combining character messes table parsing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm using version 1.6 from cabal. When I give pandoc any cell, in Emacs table 
mode, with a combining character, like the combining acute (U+0301), all cells 
to the right get a | as part of the string inside it. It behaves normally if I 
delete that character. I tried latex and html output, both get the |. Attached 
goes an example.

Thanks!

Thanks. Pandoc counts characters for table alignment, and it doesn't (yet) know 
the difference between combining characters and other characters.  I'll look 
into fixing this when I get a chance.

Data.Char can distinguish these nonspacing characters:
Prelude Data.Char> generalCategory '\x0301'
NonSpacingMark
