Oh well I thought it was a limitation of MSKLC, now your link shows that
this is a limitaiton of the keyboard drivers DDK for Windows itself.
Deadkeys should be perceived not really as keys but as functions allowing
to select temporarily another keymap.
These keymaps should just be indexed (16-bit

NFC versus NFD is not the problem here. One will still want to produce the
correct sequence which will be canonically equivalent (possibly not even in
any normalized form but still canonically equivalent).
You may still want to be able to use dead keys, instead of typing separate
keys for each comb

My opinion is that the term "code page" in Windows does not really
designate an encoding, or any code page switching at all (dynamic switches
with contextual states for the current page). It just indicates an encoding
scheme that will be processed by the device specifying it.
