Combing Forms #287

Is there a way to see and export a combining combination as SVG? I can enter the combination in the search box and it shows there, but finds nothing. I can't see any way to enter the combination.

Related to https://github.com/character-map-uwp/Character-Map-UWP/discussions/269, probably will not happen any time soon as reading the required tables to find out exactly what combinations a font supports is complex and there aren't any good free .NET libraries I've found that can do it.

I'm open to someone else attempting it
