The comments in SpecialCasing.txt were changed in 5.2 to include Titlecasing U+0345, not just uppercasing, and that confuses me. It says that it needs to be moved after all other marks on the preceding character. That makes sense to me, because it stops being a mark at that point, and becomes a (separate) capital iota.

But I don't understand the titlecasing part. Is it meant, when titlecasing the base character the iota subscript is combined with? That would also make sense, but then I would think it should move and become a small letter iota instead, U+03B9.

Or is it meant when the mark is in isolation, not combined with a base character. This can happen only after a few characters in Unicode, such as a newline or zero width space. And then I don't understand what would be done. If ordered properly, in such a situation, any marks in this isolation situation would already be in front of the iota subscript, as they all have ccc less than it. Would it then become a small letter iota?

Thanks
