amazing system that covers all the Masoretic marks as well as the

John Hudson, the man behind the font, is one of the individual members of the Unicode Consortium.
The Unicode Consortium knows that it must not prevent such a rendering system. The Unicode Consortium maintains a list dedicated to Hebrew! Unicode has been 'clarified' and possibly Uniscribe upgraded to make the font work. The control character (officially just a non-spacing mark with no visible representation) U+034F COMBINING GRAPHEME JOINER (the hacker's character) was first allowed a rendering effect to distinguish metheg hiriq and hiriq metheg. It can now also be used to distinguish diaeresis and the umlaut mark.
