That is true for almost all of the characters I write, but I certainly have text that I've got from other places that isn't precomposed. I could normalise most of it down to precomposed characters, but it's nice to not have to think about it. That said, and st is already perfectly usable for the things I do with unicode (whatever bugs there are don't bite me in a way that I notice or care about).
