Do Czech speakers expect to be able to select and delete it as a single
unit and never have the cursor in the middle of it? If not, then this is
not really fundamentally the same thing as what we have with combining

Also, "should be left to libraries" isn't really a coherent statement
when we are talking about the design of the standard *library*.
